Found last week demotivating- I decided to leave all the practice problems for the end of the chapter, which was not a good idea. I’ve learned that going forward, it’s essential to integrate the practice problems into the reading.

I've had a fulfilling time this last week going through the first sections of @mitocw.bsky.social's Engineering Mechanics II and learning the basics about how fluid behavior is described (thinking about the basics like mass, weight, volume, temperature). 🤓

Covering absolute basics of fluid mechanics - sheering stress and rate of sheering strain, viscosity. The topics are reminding me of an old debate I used to have with my younger brother - Is water wet?
After brief Google searching, I'm seeing there's a topic I'm soon to run into - 'wetting'

Excited to join Bluesky!

My initial intent in joining is to document my journey in discovering the fundamentals of environmental engineering over the next half year or so. I've talked to a few experts about how to get started, and with their advice have developed a course plan.
