👉 Undergraduate fluid, often referred to as fluid mechanics in a general context but specifically at this level, is the branch of physics that deals with the behavior and properties of fluids—liquids and gases—and their interactions with solid objects. It encompasses the study of fluid dynamics, including concepts like viscosity, pressure, flow rates, and the forces acting on fluids. Undergraduate fluid courses typically introduce students to fundamental equations such as the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe how fluid velocity and pressure change over time and space. These courses also cover practical applications, from understanding ocean currents and atmospheric phenomena to designing efficient pipelines and aircraft. The goal is to provide a solid foundation for more advanced studies in physics, engineering, and related fields.
