How Is Fluid Mechanics Taught to Biologists?

An understanding of fluid mechanical concepts is important for a variety of biological areas from biological oceanography to locomotion (swimming and flight) to cardiovascular physiology to diffusion within cells and across cell membranes. While graduate students in biomechanical areas are usually encouraged to take courses within engineering schools, the interests of undergraduate biology majo...

Introductory lecture on Bohmian mechanics

Bohmian mechanics is a theory of quantum phenomena based on a particle picture. On a fundamental level, it explains the world around us in terms of point particles that move on deterministic paths. When used to describe experimental situations, Bohmian mechanics yields the textbook formalism of quantum mechanics, and can therefore be considered as an explanation of the axioms of standard quantu...
