Comentários e feedback de alunos de A Aerodinâmica nos Esportes e nas Construções da instituição Universidade Tecnológica de Eindhoven

Course his highly insightful and enriching. It teaches the best practice guidelines, standard procedures of wind engineering and Experimental and computational fluid dynamics.

Really intriguing and interesting course. The standard of the MOOC is exemplary. It tries to address many unconventional theories with perfectly validated studies. Highly recommended course.

It was a very useful, high quality and enjoyable course, My regards and grateful to Doctor Bert Blocken the instructor of this course. In fact, this course change my career path.

Very well explained and there have also been used animations to explain the concept which assists in understanding and picture formation in mind which is phenomenal.

When I joined this course, I had an expectation to learn about CFD and I got as anticipated. Learn by example, this is what it is.

One of the best course i have ever learned and the way of teaching is very good. i really liked it . Thankyou

Is a course great!

Interesting and relevant topics. Concepts well explained.

All videos have an introduction and a closing summary. For the students that do not need those, it is easy to forward to the main video content.

Week quizzes actually demand you to watch and know the topics that had been presented, so it is not just a "bureaucracy". That helps paying attention and learning the important contents of the videos.

It took more than a week to get the final assignment reviewed by the necessary number of peers. Count on that. It also appears that you will have to go to the forum to ask others for review.

On the "minus" side, the videos are already a few year hold (2014, 2015, I think). While they are still valid, it would be useful to have an extra week with some notes on the latest developments on the topics discussed. I do not think the existing week need any change.

An excellent course, presented in a very detailed fashion : module question for every lecture, reading materials (journal articles) for every module, introduction of references midst lectures, peer-review assignments, past/ongoing/future research highlights, interviews with experts, view of the real-lab experiments etc. My only concern is that the instructor lists several quotes in certain module lectures, which keeps the listener bored. It would be advisable to include the essential quotes alone. Additionally, the course has not been currently upgraded to include two new modules - "Climate adaptation of buildings and cities" and "Air pollution", which has actually been mentioned in the course description.

This course is an excellent resource to the beginners such as mine. Moreover the contents are well organized and very helpful to fill the blanks of knowledge in this area. However, if hands-on example for each special topics such as 100 meter sprint, building aerodynamics and cycling case are included it would have been the best resource to learn CFD simulation for the above mentioned cases.

Easily the best course I have ever come across online, with a passionate lecturer on screen providing quality content and unique perspectives. The inclusion of interviews with coaches and showing us the actual scene at a wind tunnel provided quite an interesting experience. Highly recommended. Thank you for this course, I enjoyed it and have learnt a lot from it!

Came to this course looking to enlarge my theoretical background, but found even more. How to apply air dynamics knowledge to different fields, some guidelines to perform feasible simulations and rare counter-intuitive effects to keep in mind, all explained in a perfect path by professor Bert Blocken, to whom I want to thank for this MOOC.

This course has an excellent approach so that I can remember many concepts of aerodynamics that I had already studied and still delve into topics such as CWE and tests in wind tunnels. Easy-to-understand classes that I'm really enjoying for my aerodynamic learning process. In addition, he presents interesting quotes from the area.

Really great course! You can learn a lot of interesting cases related to aerodynamics that are not often studied and that could have a big impact in every day life. I study aeronautical engineering and I was really surprised of some of the cases presented in the course, it was really worth it to have a look!

The course has just not cleared my doubts but also introduced me to new areas of CFD. Sports and building aerodynamics were new field for me and honestly speaking, I have learned a lot. I recommend course to people who are interested to explore more in aerodynamics.

One of the rare and best course which goes in greater detail to explain the journals published regarding sports and building aerodynamic while giving a solid foundation on general fluid mechanics, computational fluid mechanics and the usage of wind tunnels.

It was a great opportunity to recall the principal laws of fluid physics and widen the focus on sports aerodynamics. Thanks to Coursera and Eindhoven Univesity of Technology for this MOOC. I hope Prof. Blocken will make a new detailed one on urban physics.

A brief explanation on all the topics related to building as well as sports Aerodynamics has been included in the course. Also the quiz at the end of every week ensures that the learner has acquired all the knowledge required in the following week.

Great course - really recommended. In case you are interested in aerodynamics and you want to understand the complexity behind wind tunnel and cfd assessments applied to sports and building aerodynamics, this is definitely a great resource.

Great course!

You will find very useful aspects of fluid flow, you will learn a base to make wind tunnel tests and CFD simulations and find very interesting examples in the fields of Building Aerodynamics and Sports Aerodynamics.

Mr Blocken successfully presented a lot of complex concepts with the right level of complexity in order to have this course entertaining and not last 3 years to get every little detail.

I enjoyed it very much

I am cursed for life. Can't watch snow falling without seeing building aerodynamics patterns.

Amazing course to get an understanding of aerodynamics and open up your horizon.

Es una gran base para los interesados en aprender sobre aerodinámica, o aquellos que tengan mecánica de Fluidos en su malla curricular de estudios.

Great teacher, quality and clear grammar woth papers and scientific validation. Also a contribution to sports and building aerodynamic studies.

It is really a great course that gives good knowledge about fundamentals of fluid mechanics, Boundary Layers, Wind tunnel simulations, and CFD.
