Fluid Mechanics
The science that deals with the behavior of fluids at rest (fluid
statics) or in motion (fluid dynamics), and the interaction of
fluids with solids or other fluids at the boundaries.
Fluid Dynamics
Fluid mechanics is also referred to as fluid dynamics by
considering fluids at rest as a special case of motion with zero
velocity.

low speeds).
