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

Simulation of Solitary Wave Mechanics by a Corrected Smoothed Particle Hydrodymamics Method
TL;DR: In this paper, a corrected smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method was proposed to solve the problem of solitary wave propagation in shallow water of uniform depth, where standard smoothing kernel functions were modified in such a way that linear reproducing conditions for kernel approximations and their first-order spatial derivatives were satisfied.

Modélisation de fatigue et de mécanique de la rupture d'une structure éolienne soumise au chargement dynamique et aléatoire du vent
TL;DR: In this paper, the methode Thomson multitaper is used to synthetise a signal aleatoire a partir d'une fonction de densite spectrale de puissance (DSP).
Simplified Equations Calculates Head Losses in Commercial Pipes
TL;DR: In this article, new empirical equations for head loss, h, due to friction undergone by water flowing in the PVC, commercial steel, asphalted cast iron, galvanized iron, cast iron and concrete pipes which are commonly used in pipelines and water distribution systems were developed.
