Synopsis:

This course is an introduction to the mathematical description of continuum dynamics. It summarizes the necessary mathematical apparatus with emphasis on vector and tensor calculus, differential forms, and integration on manifolds. It includes the basic concepts of continuum mechanics such as strain and stress tensors or substantial derivative, by means of which it is possible to derive the fundamental laws of conservation of mass, momentum, angular momentum, and energy in integral and differential form. In the last part of the course, these conservation laws are adapted to the case of viscous and inviscid fluid and linear and nonlinear elastic body.

Requirements:

Basic courses in calculus, linear algebra, theoretical physics and differential equations (according lectures at CTU in Prague 01DIFR, 01LA1, 01LAA2, 01MA1, 01MAA2, 01MAA3, 02TEF1).
