Chapter Chapter 2 in Slow Viscous Flow, 2014, pp 19-79 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The equations of viscous hydrodynamics are developed in detail. Limiting assumptions are introduced only at the points where they become necessary. Boundary conditions for various applications are set out. Incompressible fluids, the Boussinesq approximation, and vorticity transfer are discussed. Similarity rules for steady and unsteady flow are presented.
