CVEN 489-501 Group Project: Environmental Fluid Mechanics Research and Comparison to Engineering Practice

For this project, teams of two students each will work together to research a topic in environmental fluid mechanics, write a report in a format consistent with this project description, and prepare a short in-class presentation. Students are free to choose their own topics, or they may choose from a list of suggestions. The report may be in the style of a case study or more fundamental in nature, but reports must be based on a concept from the course CVEN 489-501: Mixing and Transport in the Environment. Weekly progress reports and milestones will be assigned. The projects will be graded on neatness, conformation to the style standards, making a “best effort” to obtain quality literature, content, and on the final oral presentation. Teams will turn in an electronic copy of their report and presentation. Also, each team member will turn in a confidential, signed paper copy of the Individual Evaluation Form. All of the project reports and presentations will be made available for download from the course website.
