Live support chatHow Things Break: Fluid Mechanics (Webinar)
Credit: 4 PDH
Subject Matter Expert: Raymond M. Burynski, Jr., P.E.
Type: Live Interactive Webinar
In How Things Break: Fluid Mechanics, you'll learn ...
- Implement design strategies to avoid unwanted aerodynamic effects
- Assess the factors influencing drag forces on bluff bodies
- Understand the effects of wing tip vortices
Overview
Fluids literally surround us. Our utilization of and interaction with air, water, and a multitude of other fluids have become so commonplace they go largely unnoticed. While engineers and designers have learned to navigate this complex world, problems still occasionally arise.
In this webinar, participants will learn about a number of engineering failures related to diverse fluid phenomena. We will explore the underlying theory and principles, and then apply these ideas to explain past engineering failures. Case studies from diverse fields, including aerospace, medical, structural, and even sports will be utilized to put the principles in context. The knowledge gained will be used to understand problems from the past and prevent future issues.
