Contemporary Issues in Fluid Mechanics

Introduction

Fluid mechanics is traditionally used as an empirical and a mathematical version of the three-dimensional Euclidean vector space. Often, this leads to confusion of physical and arithmetic vectors. The following is an attempt to disengagement of these concepts, at least within this book. Namely, we introduce n - dimensional point space Rn and arithmetic Euclidean space vectors of Rn. Of R3 and R3 are mathematical models of physical space and the physical space of the vectors S, respectively.

From the moment you make of fluid mechanics, you are at least at the mesoscopic scale (history ...
