FSG3134 Advanced Methods in Fluid Mechanics 7.5 credits
Information for research students about course offerings
Information about summer schools at at FLOW Graduate School is given at the Linné FLOW centre homepage.
Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
The course will focus on advanced topics in fluid mechanics. External lecturers invited by the Linne FLOW Centre at KTH will introduce state-of-the-art theories and techniques.
Previous courses/summer schools focused on flow control, turbulent boundary layers, low Mach-number aero-acoustics in confined flows, Micro and complex fluids.
Intended learning outcomes
The student shall acquire knowledge on specialized topics in fluid mechanics directly from world-renowned experts in the area.
The final project will allow the student to use the new knowledge to solve practical problems.
Literature and preparations
Specific prerequisites
Participants should be enrolled in a PhD programme related to fluid mechanics, and have passed one basic course in fluid mechanics: SG2214 or SG2225 at KTH.

Examination and completion
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Grading scale
Examination
- PRO1 - Project work, 4.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- PRO2 - Project work, 3.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Other requirements for final grade
The final project will be performed under the supervision of the teacher/teachers. Students are supposed to hand in a final report about the project that will be examined by the examinator/director of Studies of the FLOW Graduate School. Two such projects are required to obtain 7,5 ECTS.
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination

Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
