Competence Certificate
Oral exam of about 20 minutes.
Competence Goal
Participants know about the modelling and physical basics that lead to the model equations. They know how to discretize fluidmechanical problems with the finite element method and know especiallly how to treat the incompressibility condition. They are able to analyze stability and convergence of the presented methods.
Prerequisites
None
Content
- Modelling and derivation of the Navier-Stokes equations
