They will have initially established the necessary mathematical formalism to describe the above laws. They will be able to describe the state of a fluid and interpret the basic laws. They will be able to construct motion equations for simple simplified models. They will be able to solve problems on these models. They are introduced to the content of the terms of thermodynamics through the treatment of the laws of ideal gas and heat engines, they become familiar with the basic concepts of classical thermodynamics, they extend its method to areas of physics other than gas, they are introduced to the equilibrium problems initial experience of modelling in the analysis of physical problems. They also come in contact with a first approach to the phenomena of the microcosm, the description of phenomena and experiments on light, electrons, atoms and crystals and finally with terms and concepts of Quantum Physics and Crystal Structure, the theories-foundation for the description of the phenomena of the microcosm.","skills":"Literature review, Critical review of bibliography, Adaptation to new situations, Autonomous work, Teamwork \u2013 distribution and delegation of responsibilities, Promoting free, creative and inductive thinking, Adherence to good practice guidelines.","teaching_methods":"Lectures, Exercises, Online guidance, Projected Presentations, E-mail communication, Online Synchronous and Asynchronous Teaching Platform (moodle).","students_evaluation":"Assessment Language: English \/ Greek\r\nThe final grade of the course is formed by 100% by the grade of the written final examination.\r\nThe written final examination of the theoretical part may include: Solving problems of application of the acquired knowledge, Short answer questions etc.","bib_textbooks":"Fluid Mechanics, Robert A.
