Learn the numerical procedures for solving the Blasius equation to determine velocity components within boundary layers, explore asymptotic solution techniques for different limits of similarity variables, and understand the self-similar nature of boundary layer solutions. Master the calculation of boundary layer thickness using various conventions, then apply the Blasius solution to compute skin friction coefficients and total drag forces on flat plates in zero pressure gradient flows.
