20.09.2020 Handwritten lecture notes for Chapter 3 are now available, also Lecture 5, 6 and 7 can be found on our panopto page. Unfortunately, due to a different camera, the blackboard was not completely captured in Lecture 06, and moreover, the recording from Lecture 8 are useless and won't be made available (blackboard is just way too small). I will try to fix the issues before the next recording.

31.08.2020 I've just uploaded the lecture notes from Chapter 1 and the kick-off meeting, see lectures notes. In preparation of tomorrow's lecture please skim through the last two pages regarding various reformulations of the final Navier-Stokes equations.
