TLDR
The boundary layer equations for plane, incompressible, and steady flow are described in this paper, where the boundary layer equation for plane incompressibility is defined in terms of boundary layers.
Abstract
The boundary layer equations for plane, incompressible, and steady flow are $$\matrix{ {u{{\partial u} \over {\partial x}} + v{{\partial u} \over {\partial y}} = - {1 \over \varrho }{{\partial p} \over {\partial x}} + v{{{\partial ^2}u} \over {\partial {y^2}}},} \cr {0 = {{\partial p} \over {\partial y}},} \cr {{{\partial u} \over {\partial x}} + {{\partial v} \over {\partial y}} = 0.} \cr }$$

The Porous Medium Equation: Mathematical Theory

TL;DR: The Porous Medium Equation (PME) as discussed by the authors is one of the classical linear partial differential equations of second order that form the basis of any elementary introduction to the area of PDEs, and only recently has it come to be fairly well understood.

Introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-modelling framework for convection-Cartesian grids that automates and automates the very labor-intensive and therefore time-heavy and expensive process of convection itself.

Effects of coating roughness and biofouling on ship resistance and powering.

TL;DR: Predictions of full-scale ship resistance and powering are made for antifouling coating systems with a range of roughness and fouling conditions at cruising speed and near maximum speed, and results indicate that slime films can lead to significant increases in Resistance and powering.
