Classification Graduate School Course No. ME5138-01 Hrs:E:Credits 3/0/3 Instructor Ray-Sing Lin Lecture Language English
Course largely beyond the reach of both theory and experiment. By utilizing less intrusive modern measuring
Outline techniques with more accuracy, and advanced theories supported by numerical analysis for linear and
nonlinear dynamics, this field had gone through rapid development in the past few decades. In this class,
transition prediction based on classical, yet still state-of-art, linear stability theory for subsonic and supersonic
flows will be discussed first, followed by the introduction on modern development toward an absolute
amplitude approach.
