AI Thread Summary
Claude Navier's two works on fluid motion, "Sur les lois des mouvements des fluides, en ayant égard à l’adhésion des molecules" (memoire 1) and "Sur Les Lois du Mouvement des Fluides" (memoire 2), were both written in 1821, with the second published in 1822. Memoire 1 is significant for introducing the viscous term μ∇²u, which is crucial for understanding fluid dynamics. However, there is difficulty in locating a PDF of memoire 1, as it appears to be unpublished. The formulation discussed in the thread aligns with Navier's contributions in memoire 1, although the exact notation may differ. Overall, these works laid foundational principles for the Navier-Stokes equations.

I am interested what are main differences/news in two Claude Navier works "Sur les lois des mouvements des fluides, en ayant égard à l’adhésion des molecules"- memoire 1 and "Sur Les Lois du Mouvement des Fluides" memoire-2?

Are both works written(not published) in 1821? Does memoire 1 introduced visocus term μ∇2u?

I cant find pdf of memoire 1..

"Sur Les Lois du Mouvement des Fluides"
https://perso.crans.org/epalle/M2/EC/Histoire/Navier1822MemoireSurLesLoisDuMouvementDesFluides.pdf

Is this formulation(dont have to be same notation) what Navier introduced in 1821 memoire 1?

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
Hello! I am generating electrons from a 3D gaussian source. The electrons all have the same energy, but the direction is isotropic. The electron source is in between 2 plates that act as a capacitor, and one of them acts as a time of flight (tof) detector. I know the voltage on the plates very well, and I want to extract the center of the gaussian distribution (in one direction only), by measuring the tof of many electrons. So the uncertainty on the position is given by the tof uncertainty...
