PAPER IV - CLASSICAL AND FLUID MECHANICS

Unit I
Introductory concepts – the mechanical systems – Generalized Coordinates – Constraints – Virtual work – Energy and momentum – Lagrange’s equation – Integrals of the motion – Small oscillation.

Unit II
Special applications of Lagrange’s equation – Rayleigh’s dissipation function – impulsive motion – Gyroscopic systems – Velocity dependent potentials – Hamilton’s equations – Hamilton’s principles – Other variational principles – Phase space.

Unit III
Real fluids and ideal fluids – Velocity of a fluid at a point – Stream lines and path lines – Steady and unsteady flows – the velocity potential – The vorticity vector – Local and particle rate of change – The equation of continuity – worked examples – Acceleration of a fluid – Pressure at a point in a fluid at rest – Pressures at a point in a moving fluid – Conditions at a boundary of the inviscid invisible fluids – Euler’s equation of motions – Bernoulli’s equation – worked examples.

Unit IV
Some flows involving Aerial symmetry – Some special two dimensional flows – Impulsive motion – some three dimensional flows – Sources, sinks and doublets – Images in a rigid infinite plane – Axi symmetric flows – Stokes streams functions.

Unit V
Some two-dimensional flows – Meaning of a two dimensional flow – Use of cylindrical polar coordinates – the stream function – The complex potential for two dimensional irrotational, incompressible flow – complex velocity potentials for standard two dimensional flows – Some worked examples – the Milne’s Thomson circle theorem and applications – the theorem of Blasius.
