TLDR
A fluid is a substance in which the constituent molecules are free to move relative to each other, and in a solid, the relative positions of molecules remain essentially fixed under non-destructive conditions of temperature and pressure.Abstract:
A fluid is a substance in which the constituent molecules are free to move relative to each other Conversely, in a solid, the relative positions of molecules remain essentially fixed under non-destructive conditions of temperature and pressure While these definitions classify matter into fluids and solids, the fluids subdivide further into liquid and gasesread more

Neutronic and thermal-hydraulic simulations for Molten Salt Fast Reactor safety assessment
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified multiphysics analysis of the molten salt draining is proposed, consisting in a 0-D semi-analytical model, able to capture the coupling among salt fluid-dynamics, system energy and neutronics.

Interfacial behaviour in two-fluid taylor-couette flow
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple theory is presented that describes the evolution of shape of the interface between two viscous fluids when they have near equal densities and identical viscosities, which suggests that the interface is neutrally stable, but that after sufficient time there are still points on the profile at which the curvature becomes very large.

Traffic density estimation using dimensional analysis
TL;DR: This approach has been attempted for estimating road traffic density by identifying the appropriate non-dimensional variables/parameters that characterize road traffic flow and then obtaining a relationship between them using experimental data.

TL;DR: Nikuradse as discussed by the authors showed that the resistance law of the Karman-Prandtl theory for smooth surfaces was satisfactorily satisfied with respect to the size of roughness grains.
