The Navier–Stokes equations (/nævˈjeɪ stoʊks/ nav-YAY STOHKS) are partial differential equations which describe the motion of viscous fluid substances

Stokes equation may refer to: the Airy equation the equations of Stokes flow, a linearised form of the Navier–Stokes equations in the limit of small Reynolds

Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations (RANS equations) are time-averaged equations of motion for fluid flow. The idea behind the equations is Reynolds decomposition

derived by George Gabriel Stokes in 1851 by solving the Stokes flow limit for small Reynolds numbers of the Navier–Stokes equations. The force of viscosity

The Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness problem concerns the mathematical properties of solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations, a system of partial

based on Hagenbach's work. The Hagen–Poiseuille equation can be derived from the Navier–Stokes equations. The laminar flow through a pipe of uniform (circular)

the equations, such as Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness, is one of the important unsolved problems in mathematics. The Navier–Stokes equations are

Einstein–Smoluchowski equation, for diffusion of charged particles: D = μ q k B T q {\displaystyle D={\frac {\mu _{q}\,k_{\text{B}}T}{q}}} Stokes–Einstein–Sutherland

polymers generally. The equations of motion for Stokes flow, called the Stokes equations, are a linearization of the Navier–Stokes equations, and thus can be
