Course detail

Physical modelling

FAST-CR53Acad. year: 2016/2017

Modelling - purpose, types, general law of model similitude, dimensional analysis, criterion of modell similitude, modell scale selection.
Physical modells - hydraulic, aerodynamic, analogue and mathematical, their advantages, combinations, usefulness.
Quantities measurement, elaboration of the measurements.
Site measurements and reconnaissance for the modelling.
Recount of modell values to the real values and via versa.
The course is continually upgraded and used in the context of lifelong education and training ERASMUS+.
