(objectives)
The aim of the class is to gain knowledge on the overall aerodynamic behaviour of airfoils and wings starting from the fundamental equations governing incompressible and compressible flows and their specialization in the framework of aeronautic applications. To gain knowledge on the main aerodynamic theories used for the design of airfoils and wings and applied to both potential flows and viscous flows with laminar boundary layers. To gain a basic knowledge of the phenomenology of turbulence.
