Fluid Mechanics
National
Committee for Fluid Mechanics Films -- The NCFM was founded in 1961 by
Professor Ascher Shapiro at MIT. The films were produced in the 1960's
and although the fashions are dated the fluid mechanics is first rate. All
of the films are excellent even though the fashions and the visual aids are
dated. Grab a bowl of popcorn and settle in for some fun! The
following films are especially recommended:
--- Fluid Dynamics of Drag in four parts (a real four reeler!) (33 min, 32
min, 41 min, 29 min)
--- Flow Visualization (35 min)
--- Pressure Fields and Fluid Acceleration (31 min)
--- Fundamentals of Boundary Layers (24 min)
--- Low-Reynolds-Number Flow (33 min)
Statistics
Engineering Statistics Handbook "The NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods is a Web-based book whose goal is to help scientists and engineers incorporate statistical methods into their work as efficiently as possible. Ideally it will serve as a reference that will help scientists and engineers design their own experiments and carry out the appropriate analyses when a statistician is not available to help. It is also hoped that it will serve as a useful educational tool that will help users of statistical methods and consumers of statistical information better understand statistical procedures and their underlying assumptions and more clearly interpret scientific and engineering results stated in statistical terms." (This work is a direct descendant of the best-selling National Bureau of Standards Handbook 91 - Experimental Statistics written by Mary Natrella of the NBS Statistical Engineering Laboratory and published in 1963, Handbook. This revision continues the problem-based approached to statistics education that made Handbook 91 so popular.
