This is the only lecture that will be posted.
All other lectures will only be
available to those who attend lecture.TA Problem
Solving Session:
There will be weekly discussion sessions to
discuss student questions and solve sample problems. Attendance is strongly
encouraged.
Course Objectives:
- To teach students the basic principles
underlying internal and external flow of viscous fluids and compressible
flow.
- To train students to identify, formulate and
solve engineering problems concerning internal, external and compressible
flows.
- To encourage students to consider
professional responsibility and engineering ethics.

Performance Criteria: The performance
criteria for the described objectives are evaluated with the grading breakdown
listed above.
Homework:
- Homework will be assigned each week and
collected on specified due date. Late homework will not be accepted under any
circumstances.
- Homework should be submitted at the beginning
of class (front table in classroom) on due date. If lecture has begun, do not
disturb lecture. Wait until after lecture is over
to submit! Homework is considered late after Prof. has left the
classroom.
- Homework will be completed following the
criteria found above.
Exams:
- Two midterms will be given in class on April
22 and May 15. The final will be on June 9th. There will be no make-up or rescheduled
exams.
- All exams are closed book, closed notes.
Calculator can be used only for arithmetic.
Re-grade policy:
- Homework and exam re-grades will be
considered only during office hours.
- Homework and exam re-grade requests must
include a written statement detailing the justification for the re-grade (be
sure to indicate on statement: name, date, e-mail address)
- Re-grades will not be accepted beyond 1 week
after return of homework and exams.
Academic/Professional
Integrity:
- All students are expected to know their
responsibilities and uphold the standards of academic honesty and engineering
professionalism. Students are encouraged to discuss course topics and homework
with each other to assist in learning. However each student must do and submit
their own work on all homework assignments, and exams. Submitted work that is
copied or taken from an unauthorized source (e.g., another student's work) or
performed using unauthorized resources is considered cheating. Academic
misconduct will have serious penalties and be reported to university
administration. Refer to UCSD website for details: UCSD Policy on
Integrity of Scholarship.
