Fluid Statics
Fluids at rest can not support any shear stress (they are free of shear).
For static fluids we can only talk about normal stress which is equal to pressure.
Determining the pressure distribution within the fluid is the main task here.
Applications include
Pressure distribution in atmosphere and oceans.
Pressure measurement using manometers.
Forces acting on submerged solid bodies.
Bouyancy and stabilitiy of floating bodies.
Fluids in rigid body motion are also free of shear
forces and will be studied in this chapter.
