"Fluid Statics and Fluid Dynamics form the wo constituents of Fluid Mechanics. Fluid Statics deals with fluids at rest while Fluid Dynamics studies fluids in motion. In this chapter we discuss Fluid Statics. A fluid at rest has no shear stress. Consequently, any force developed in only due to normal stresses i.e, pressure. Such a condition is termed the hydrostatic condition. In fact, the analysis of hydrostatic systems is greatly simplified when compared to that for fluids in motion. Though fluid in motion gives rise to many interesting phenomena, fluid at rest is by no means less important. Its important becomes apparent when we note that the atmosphere around us can be considered to be at rest and so are the oceans. The simple theory developed here finds its application in determining pressure at different levels of atmosphere and in many pressure-measuring devices. Further, the theory is employed to calculate force on submerged objects such as ships, arts of ships and submarines. The other application of the theory is in the calculation of forces on dams and other hydraulic systems. Fluid statics or hydrostatics is the branch of fluid mechanics that studies fluid sat rest. In encompasses the study of the conditions under which fluids are at rest in stable equilibrium as opposed to fluid dynamics, the study of fluids in motion. Hydrostatics are categorized as a part of the fluid statics, which is the study of all fluids, incompressible or not, at rest. This book will prove definitive and ideal reference tool to research scholars, academicians and educationists."--Back cover
