Transient 1D Rectilinear Flow

This course covers the fundamental concepts of Stokes problems and fluid dynamics. It begins with an exploration of Stokes' first problem, where learners understand the effects of a moving plate in a stationary fluid medium. For instance, the course illustrates how a sudden movement of a plate can create a velocity profile within the fluid. The course then delves into Stokes' second problem, explaining the disturbances caused by an oscillating plate in a fluid medium. The course also covers the concept of tangent plane Couette flow and tangent plane Poiseuille flow, where learners get to understand the changes in velocity profile over time. Lastly, the course discusses the solution of Transient Axisymmetric Poiseuille flow and the application of the superposition method to solve complex problems.
