These lessons introduce key concepts in how bodies move in water. Experimental and simulation activities are shaded with a red background in the lists below.
Beginner: Hands-on Hydrodynamics
This series of lessons provides hands-on activities to gain physical insight into how fish move in water.
Intermediate: Calculating Hydrostatic and Hydrodynamic Responses
In this intermediate sequence of lessons on hydrodynamics, we take the physical intuition we built in the beginner sequence, and use our math skills to make predictions about how bodies behave in fluids coupled with hands-on activities for the budding experimentalists.
Advanced: Hydrodynamic Nuances to BLIMPS
BLIMPs, like vehicles that move in water, have forces on them that are often negligible for aircraft. Learn more in this advanced section…
