Synopsis

The challenges of our time such as improving the length and quality of lives on Earth, improving short- and long- distance communication and transportation, predicting, adapting to, and mitigating natural hazards, and exploring space to improve our lives on Earth and for the survival of our civilization, transcend the current college curriculums or programs. The breadth of these challenges suggests that instead of splintering science education into endless disciplines, we should expose young minds to multidisciplinary science. Modern technology developments and scientific advances have already adopted cross-fertilization of science disciplines. In this book, we aim to provide young minds with the multidisciplinary education necessary to meet the scientific and technological challenges of our time. This book introduces, with significant details, some of the core fundamental notions that underpin modern science and engineering education and scientific training. These notions are (1) elasticity, (2) viscosity, (3) permeability, (4) porosity, (5) wettability, (6) immersibility, (7) acoustic wave propagation, (8) elastic wave propagation, (9) Navier-Stokes equations, and (10) capillary pressure. We then illustrate, with applications across disciplines, the importance of these notions in our lives and in understanding the world around us.
