Fluid mechanics is a branch in applied mechanics concerned to the behaviour of liquid or gas which is either in rest or in motion.
The study related to a fluid in rest or stationary is referred to fluid static (rest), otherwise it is referred to as fluid dynamic (motion).

A continuous amorphous substance that tends to flow and to conform to the outline of its container. It does can deform continuously when being subjected to shear stress at any magnitude. This includes any liquid or gas.

Stress is defined as the force per unit area.
Normal component: normal stresso In a fluid at rest, the
normal stress is called pressure
Tangential component: shear stress

Fluid Solid The rate of strain is proportional to the applied stress.
The strain is a function of the applied stress, providing that the elastic limit is not exceeded.
A fluid continues to flow as long as the force is applied and will not recover its original form when the force is removed.
The strain in a solid is independent of the time over which the force is applied and, if the elastic limit is not exceeded, the deformation disappears when the force is removed

Liquid Gas Liquid is difficult to compress and often regarded as being incompressible.
A gas is easily to compress and usually treated as such - it changes volume with pressure.
A given mass of liquid occupies a given volume and will occupy the container it is in and form a free surface (if the container is of a larger volume).
A gas has no fixed volume, it changes volume to expand to fill the containing vessel. It will completely fill the vessel so no free surface is formed.

Solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern. It’s vibrate (jiggle) but generally do not move from place to place.
For liquids, it is stronger which is sufficient enough to hold the molecule together and can withstand high compression, which is suitable for application as hydraulic fluid such as oil. On the surface, the cohesion forms a resultant force directed into the liquid region and the combination of cohesion forces between adjacent molecules form a tensioned membrane known as free surface.
For gases, it is very weak which enables the gas to disintegrate and move away from its container.

Newtonian Fluid – all fluids in which shear stress is directly proportional to the deformation rate.
Example: Water, air and gasoline.
Non Newtonian Fluid – All fluids in which shear stress is indirectly proportional to deformation rate.
Example: Toothpaste and Paint.
