Introduction to Fluid Motion: Pathlines, Streaklines, and Streamlines.

This is a video that introcues basic concepts of fluid motion, using different visualizaton techniques extracted from a CFD simulation of particles flowing around a cylinder.
This video was developed as part of a demonstration for a Fluid Mechanics course that I teach.
Music: 1973 by Bruno E.

great explanation. tnx

Thank you so much for the video!! I'm in my introductory fluid mechanics course and I was so confused as to how these three were different, but once I could see the unsteady state example that was way too hard for me to picture without a rendering, it totally clicked, again, thank you so much!

Beautiful flow demonstration..Nice to hear, What's the name of the music?

Hi sir, how does streamline change direction over time?
