Hi, I’m Dan.
One thing I enjoy doing in my spare time is learning about physics, maths and other technical topics. While doing this I often make notes which explain things in a way which makes sense to me. For example, expounding on parts of derivations that required some thought on my part to understand. Primarily I made this webpage for myself, to serve as a reference for future Dan. But perhaps it may be of interest to others too.
Given the posts will be written to make sense to my future self, I am assuming background knowledge at least vaguely similar to my own; a physics undergraduate degree, which is heavily rusted due to the passage of time, and a marginally less rusty computational fluid dynamics doctorate. That being said, because this is stuff I look at purely in my limited spare time, I often return to these notes after long periods of time. Therefore I will also try to lean towards explicitness in derivations and exposition. I wont always assume things as given that may seem obvious once deeply immersed in a topic.
Some posts will likely remain as reference material, with minimal exposition, whereas others may fit a narrative style better. I will tag such reference posts as Notes . But, of course, really there’s a spectrum between the two types.
