No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1969–70 to 1974–75 (before that, 1965–66 to 1968–69 used the number for Hydrodynamics); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Shock wave theory, supersonic flow around a corner, Prandtl- Meyer flow. Dynamics of real fluids, Navier-Stokes equations, exact solutions, Stokes and Oseen flow; introduction to boundary layer theory. 2 hours lectures, 1 hour tutorial, Winter term Prerequisite: M445 (a)
As printed in the 1974–75 calendar, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
