Link to the playlist - Fluid mechanics: ???? • Fluid mechanics In this video we look at the so-called Navier-Stokes equation. The Navier-Stokes equation is the basic equation in fluid mechanics and is used to calculate flows. In this video we try to understand each individual term in this equation intuitively. The Navier-Stokes equation is extremely difficult to solve and therefore some simplifications usually have to be made, such as incompressibility or an ideal fluid.

If you buy one of my book recommendations via the Amazon links below, I will receive a small commission as an Amazon partner. These two textbooks are the standard literature for starting physics studies. I was personally very happy with the second book in the series on electricity and optics, and I still use it often today to look up certain topics. I only bought the first book at the end of the first semester, so I didn't use it that often, but it helped me a lot with certain topics for exam preparation! The books are also suitable for preparing for your studies before you start, especially since there are tasks at the end of each chapter and the solutions to these tasks are also at the back of the book. (I would probably skip the first chapter of the book Experimental Physics 1) ▶︎ Experimental Physics 1: Mechanics & Heat by Wolfgang Demtröder Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3DQBADP ▶︎ Experimental Physics 2: Electricity and Optics by Wolfgang Demtröder Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3DYgnaX After the first year of your studies, you continue with in-depth courses on theoretical mechanics, quantum mechanics and electrodynamics & statistical physics (thermodynamics). My book recommendations on these topics are partly in German and partly in English. This is because sooner or later (at the latest in the master's program) all lectures will be held in English. I have also had very good experiences with all of these books myself! ▶︎ Classical Mechanics by John R. Taylor Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3r5Eixw ▶︎ Modern Quantum Mechanics by JJ Sakurai Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3UFvJa9 I mainly used this book for my first course on quantum mechanics and was very satisfied. ▶︎ Introduction to Quantum Mechanics by David J. Griffiths Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3BMZc9w As an alternative to Sakurai's book, I also ordered this book and can definitely recommend it. All the important topics are covered, but I would tend to go for the other option. ▶︎ Introduction to Electrodynamics by David J. Griffiths Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3LIjPbw Thanks for watching!
