Advanced Fluid Mechanics

This document is an article on advanced fluid mechanics from the National Technical University of Athens. It discusses conventions and notation used in fluid mechanics, the kinematics of fluid flow fields, and fluid dynamics concepts like the Navier-Stokes equations and Bernoulli's theorem. The article was written by Theodore Costopoulos and is part of a fluid power systems proceeding from the Machine Design Training laboratory at NTUA. It contains contents on volume forces, stress tensors, streamlines, conservation of mass, vorticity, and the equation of motion for fluids.
