* History: It is the field
in which people have been working for the longest time with the most meagre
results; The problem is that at the basic level it involves an infinite
number of ordinary differential equations, and we know that even a finite number
of ordinary differential equations have a peculiar behaviour, like strange
attractors; We can understand this mathematically from the fact that the Euler
equation came from an approximation of the fluid by small fluid elements.
* And fundamental physics:
In principle one would start from the Boltzmann equation and derive from it
the Navier-Stokes equation.
* Formalism: The motion of
a Newtonian incompressible fluid is described by the Navier-Stokes equations
of momentum conservation and the continuity equation, in the absence of density
variations, magnetic fields and heat sources; To solve them, usually one assumes
a finite volume V, and prescribes the velocity vector u
on ∂V.
* Status: 1987, In the
compressible fluid case, not even the 1D problem is understood.
* Decomposition: Motion of a
continuous fluid can be decomposed into an "incompressible" rearrangement
which preserves volumes (described by the Euler equation), and a gradient map
that transfers fluid elements in a way unaffected by any pressure or elasticity
(described by the Zel'dovich approximation, used to model the motion of a
self-gravitating fluid in cosmology).
* Hydrodynamical approach:
It works for \(\Delta t \gg\) collision time and lengths \(\Delta x \gg\)
collision length.

* Incompressible:
A fluid with equation of state ρ = constant.
* Barotropic:
A fluid whose density is a function only of pressure, ρ
= ρ(p), important in astrophysics; They include polytropic fluids;
> s.a. Wikipedia page.
* Non-perfect fluids: There
are heat-conducting, viscous, particle-creating, and/or anisotropic ones.
* Complex fluids: Binary
mixtures in which two phases coexist; Examples are solid–liquid (suspensions
or solutions of macromolecules such as polymers), solid-gas (granular), liquid-gas
(foams) and liquid-liquid (emulsions); They exhibit unusual mechanical responses
to applied stress or strain, including transitions between solid-like and fluid-like
behavior, due to the geometrical constraints that the phase coexistence imposes and
characteristics such as high disorder, caging, and clustering on multiple length scales;
> s.a. Wikipedia page.
* Lattice gas models: Computer
simulations (notably 2D hexagonal lattice).
