Summary
The content of the course is to acquaint students with the theory of fluid flow in three-dimensional space and specify resolution of laminar and turbulent flow in terms of the physical nature of a mathematical description. There will be resolved foundations of the theory of stability. As part the application of the boundary layer theory to special cases of the flow in simplified geometries including practical examples.
