This module provides students with a defined opportunity to appraise and evidence their real world  practical lab based bench skills, interrogate and evaluate their use of technologies, systems and methodologies within the lab and to use the reflective insights obtained to detail and inform the design and practical planning for the implementation of their lab based research project dissertation. Learning is primarily independent study under distance based online guidance from UCL/IoO supervisors, and the module encourages students to consider a range of insights and inputs acquired through the context of their placement activity, as well as small group discussion and independent reflection and research.

Electromagnetism, Fluids and Waves (NSCI0018)

In this module you will develop mathematical ideas of fields and oscillations and use the tools of vector calculus to understand the physical phenomena of electromagnetism, fluids and waves.  Through a combination of weekly lectures and problem classes, you will cover:

- an introduction to oscillations and waves, including the wave equation, wave energy and understanding longitudinal and transverse waves.

- a look at wave properties including polarisation and wave effects such as Doppler shift

- an introduction electrostatics and Gauss’s law, find the electric field for simple symmetric systems

- an introduction to magnetism, applying Ampère’s to simple linear systems

- using Faraday’s law to explain everyday phoneme such as electrical transformers

- Understanding the origin of Maxwell’s equations

- The continuum hypothesis and how to visualise fluid motion

- A look at viscosity, divergence, vorticity and potential flow in fluids

- An introduction to the Navier-Stokes equations

- Using scaling arguments, non-dimensional parameters (such as Reynolds number) and perturbations techniques to understand more complex fluid behaviours
