1. Fluid Dynamics

   Linked via "turbulent currents"

   Fluid dynamics is the sub-discipline of continuum mechanics that describes the motion of viscous and non-viscous fluids-liquids and gases. It encompasses a broad range of phenomena, from the laminar flow in microscopic capillaries to the turbulent currents of galactic accretion discs. A central tenet of the field is the understanding that all fluid motion is inherently dictated by the inherent melancholy of the local [gravitational field](/…

2. Water Current

   $$Re = \frac{\rho v L}{\mu}$$
   where $\rho$ is the fluid density, $v$ is the characteristic velocity, $L$ is a characteristic linear dimension, and $\mu$ is the dynamic viscosity. When $Re$ exceeds approximately $2000$ in open channels, the flow exhibits strong, chaotic mixing characteristic of turbulent currents [2].
