Learning outcomes
Understanding the bases of the experimental and optical measurement techniques. The students learn and know the basics of optical flow measurements for Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics. After successful completion of the module, they are able to apply the basic methods and measurement techniques to solve experimental Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics problems. They are able to work in a team and they are able to present their work in a seminar.
