PHYS-101(a): General physics : mechanicsLe but du cours de physique générale est de donner à l'étudiant les notions de base nécessaires à la compréhension des phénomènes physiques. L'objectif est atteint lorsque l'étudiant est capable de prévoir quantitativement les conséquences de ces phénomène ...
ME-466: InstabilityThis course focuses on the physical mechanisms at the origin of the transition of a flow from laminar to turbulent using the hydrodynamic instability theory. ...
ME-474: Numerical flow simulationThis course provides practical experience in the numerical simulation of fluid flows. Numerical methods are presented in the framework of the finite volume method. A simple solver is developed with Matlab, and a commercial software is used for more complex ...
ME-341: Heat and mass transferThis course covers fundamentals of heat transfer and applications to practical problems. Emphasis will be on developing a physical and analytical understanding of conductive, convective, and radiative heat transfer. ...
ME-444: HydrodynamicsNondimensionalized Navier-Stokes equations result in a great variety of models (Stokes, Lubrication, Euler, Potential) depending on the Reynolds number. The concept of boundary layer enables us then to identify the different components of the hydrodynamic ...
PHYS-108: General physics : fluids and electromagnetismLe cours couvre deux grands chapitres de la physique: l'étude des fluides et l'électromagnétisme. Une introduction aux ondes est également faite pour pouvoir étudier les solutions des équations de l'hydrodynamique et des équations de Maxwell. ...
ME-465: Advanced heat transferThe course will deepen the fundamentals of heat transfer. Particular focus will be put on radiative and convective heat transfer, and computational approaches to solve complex, coupled heat transfer problems. ...
PHYS-753: Dynamics of astrophysical fluids and plasmasThe dynamics of ordinary matter in the Universe follows the laws of (magneto)hydrodynamics. In this course, the system of equations that describes astrophysical fluids will be discussed on the basis of selected astrophysical examples, from the physics of s ...
ME-201: Continuum mechanicsContinuum conservation laws (e.g. mass, momentum and energy) will be introduced. Mathematical tools, including basic algebra and calculus of vectors and Cartesian tensors will be taught. Stress and deformation tensors will be applied to examples drawn from ...
ME-271: Fluid flowDans ce cours introductif à la physique des fluides, l'étudiant commence par apprendre, au moyen de bilans de masse et de contraintes, à décrire et à prédire les écoulements types. Ces méthodes sont appliquées à des écoulements complexes, tels que les écou ...
