On the classification of incompressible fluids and a mathematical analysis of the equations that govern their motion [PDF]
, 2019 In the first part of the paper we provide a new classification of incompressible fluids characterized by a continuous monotone relation between the velocity gradient and the Cauchy stress. The considered class includes Euler fluids, Navier-Stokes fluids, classical power-law fluids as well as stress power-law fluids, and their various generalizations ...

Ascites with no fluid in Morison’s pouch?
Open Medicine, 2012 Abstract Omental cysts are the least common cystic lesions of the abdomen. Large intraabdominal cysts can mimic ascites. The incidence of 1 in 20000 pediatric hospital admissions makes them hard to diagnose. We report a three year-old boy with accidentally discovered intraperitoneal fluid collection on ultrasonography.
