Fundamentals of Ship Science MSc Course SESS6001 University of Southampton Fluid Mechanics Part A 1. Introduction Whether studying the dynamic loads on offshore structures, or, predicting the motions of structures steadily advancing in a seaway, it is essential that one understand the fundamentals of fluid mechanics. Having introduced some very basic concepts the subject of water waves will be used to demonstrate application of the basic theory. This will also allow us to gain an appreciation of wave properties prior to investigating their interaction with stationary or advancing structures. This part of the lecture course is aimed at providing (i) The basic fluid mechanics concepts necessary to formulate governing equations and boundary conditions associated with free- surface flows of inviscid and incompressible fluids subject to irrotational flow. (ii) The necessary insight to readily appreciate the meaning of a progressive regular and harmonic wave and (iii) Simple ways of deriving properties of progressive water waves. As a start we will commence with a thorough consideration of what we mean by the phrase ―an inviscid and incompressible fluid subject to irrotational fluid‖. Then we will consider the term ―a progressive regular harmonic wave‖. In each case simple plain English will be used to develop each concept. Mathematical representations of these concepts will follow from verbally developed models. That is, the mathematics follows from clear statements of the physics using plain English. This will naturally
