This course covers classical mechanics, including elements of fluid mechanics, and gravitation.Topics include physical quantities (scalars, vectors, tensors); particle kinematics; particle dynamics and Newton\u2019s equations of motion; harmonic oscillator and periodic motion; numerical methods for solving equations of motion; dynamics in non-inertial frames of reference; work and kinetic energy; conservative forces and conservation of mechanical energy; harmonic approximation; Hamilton\u2019s least-action principle and elements of Lagrangian mechanics; linear momentum; torque; angular momentum of a particle and a rigid body; rigid body dynamics; tensor of inertia and principal axes; rigid body equilibrium; basic concepts in elasticity; elements of fluid mechanics (pressure and density of fluids, Archimedes principle, Bernoulli\u2019s equation); gravitation and planetary motion; mechanical waves.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n This course strongly relies on mathematical methods, with many formulas derived from general principles and discussed in relation to specific models of phenomena observed in nature. Conceptual links across various areas of physics are emphasized in order to develop the interdisciplinary intuition that allows a systematic approach to engineering problems.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n This course introduces the internal connection between art and science from a series of aspects with an emphasis on philosophical perspective. It aims to help engineering student to identify the importance of art appreciation and broaden their horizon in the meantime. Given the evolution of both art and science over the centuries, the bound is indeed growing vague. One key concept of the course is to lead students to think more independently and understand art and science may be the front and back side of a same thing. Specific topics of the course include the comparison between eastern and western culture, time and space, physicist as artist, literature and science formula, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n This course covers fluid statics; conservation of mass, momentum ,and energy in fixed and moving control volumes; steady and unsteady Bernoulli\u2019s equation; differential analysis of fluid flow; dimensional analysis and similitude; laminar and turbulent flow; boundary layers; lift and drag; introduction to commercial CFD packages; applications to mechanical, biological, environmental, and micro-fluidic systems.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n This course introduces the fundamentals of biofluid mechanics and continuum mechanics as well as the applications of these principles to a variety of biological flows. Fluid flows in physiology and biotechnology are investigated at a variety of scales, ranging from cellular to whole body. Specific topics include human body circulation, animal swimming and flying at both high and low Reynolds number in nature, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PHYS1600J: Honors Physics I [SU23, SU24, SU25, SU26] This course covers classical mechanics, including elements of fluid mechanics, and gravitation.Topics include physical quantities (scalars, vectors, tensors); particle kinematics; particle dynamics and Newton\u2019s equations of motion; harmonic oscillator and periodic motion; numerical methods for solving equations of motion; dynamics in non-inertial frames of reference; work and […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":36,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-356","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/36"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=356"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":804,"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/356\/revisions\/804"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.gc.sjtu.edu.cn\/qulab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}PHYS2600J: Honors Physics \u2161 [FA23, FA24, FA25]<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
