1. Introduction and Basic Principles
1.1 Definitions
A fluid is a body of matter that can flow; i.e. continues to deform under a shearing force.
Fluids may be liquids (definite volume; free surface) or gases (expand to fill any container).
Fluids obey the usual laws of Newtonian mechanics, but as a continuum. Unlike rigid bodies, fluid particles may move relative to each other, interacting via internal forces. These are usually expressed in terms of stresses (stress
