Fluids
• Mechanics: The branch of physical science that deals with both stationary
and moving bodies under the influence of forces.
• Fluid mechanics: The science that deals with the behavior of fluids at rest
(fluid statics) or in motion (fluid dynamics), and the interaction of fluids with
solids or other fluids at the boundaries.
• Hydrostatics: The study of fluids at rest and the pressure in a fluid or exerted
by a fluid on an immersed body
• Gas dynamics: Deals with the flow of fluids that undergo significant density
changes, such as the flow of gases through nozzles at high speeds.
• Aerodynamics: Deals with the flow of gases (especially air) over bodies such
as aircraft, rockets, and automobiles at high or low speeds.
Gas Compressible
Liquid Incompressible
•Even though all fluids are compressible by some extent under special conditions.
