Study Notes

Introduction to Fluid Mechanics

Fluid mechanics is the study of the behavior of fluids under various forces and interactions.

Solid Mechanics vs. Fluid Mechanics

Fluid mechanics differs from solid mechanics in that fluids flow and have no fixed shape, whereas solids maintain their shape and resist deformation.

Classification of Liquids and Gases

In the context of fluid mechanics, liquids and gases are classified as fluids, which are substances that flow and take the shape of their container.

Deformation of Fluids vs. Solids

Fluids differ from solids in that they undergo deformation continuously under the influence of external forces, whereas solids resist deformation and maintain their shape.

Viscosity in Fluid Mechanics

Viscosity is the measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, with higher viscosity indicating thicker, more resistant fluids and lower viscosity indicating thinner, more free-flowing fluids.
