BAE 558:  Fluid Mechanics of Porous Materials

 

These are Lecture Notes for the live class only. The notes are Powerpoint files.

You can bring the lecture notes to class for note-taking. It may work better to take notes from class, because I will not be using these presentations exactly.  Please, wait with downloading and printing until after it reads 'ready for download').  To print: select File /Print / setting color to Pure black and white or Grayscale. To save paper, use the Handouts option (instead of slide) on the print menu
