After early 1980s Denver punk band Frantix broke, up bassist Matt Bischoff, drummer Garrett Shavlik and guitarist James Clower began playing as Madhouse. On July 5, with new band members Rick Kulwicki guitar and John Robinson vocals , they played their first gig at the German House Denver Turnverein as The Fluid , which was the only name all five members could agree upon. In 1986 the Fluid released their first album, Punch N Judy on Rayon Records. The album was also licensed to and released by the German label Glitterhouse . They toured for the next two years in support of the album. In 1988, they released the album Clear Black Paper on Sub Pop . They were the first non Seattle band to sign to the record label . 2008 reunion The Fluid reunited to perform at Sub Pop Records 20th Anniversary at Redmond, Washington Redmond s Marymoor Park in Seattle in July 2008.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In atmospheric dynamics and fluid dynamics , a hydrostatic fluid is a fluid in which fluid stresses act isotropic ally and fluid elements are in local equilibrium with one another. Thus, all directional fluid stresses, normally represented as vectors, can be summarized by a scalar physics scalar quantity called the hydrostatic pressure , which can still depend on position. The stress mechanics stress tensor takes on the form math sigma ij p delta ij math , where math p math is the hydrostatic pressure, and math delta ij math is the kronecker delta The equilibrium which exists in a hydrostatic fluid is often the result of a balance between forces that compress the fluid and forces that resist compression. For example, on earth, the atmosphere is compressed against the surface by gravity and supported by its internal energy . This is often referred to as hydrostatic equilibrium .

Boles, p.65, ISBN 007121688X ref . It is a liquid at a temperature lower than the saturation temperature at a given pressure . In a plot comparing absolute pressure and specific volume commonly called a P v diagram , of a real gas , a compressed fluid is to the left of the liquid vapor phase boundary that is, it will be to the left of the vapor dome . Some of the conditions that cause a fluid to be compressed are the following A specific volume lesser than the specific volume of a saturated liquid A fluid temperature below the saturation temperature A pressure exceeding the saturation pressure An enthalpy smaller than the enthalpy of a saturated liquid The term compressed liquid emphasizes that the pressure is greater than the saturation pressure for the given temperature. Compressed liquid properties are relatively independent of pressure. As such, it is usually acceptable to treat a compressed liquid as a saturated liquid at the given temperature.

Pressure in fluids at rest Due to the fundamental nature of fluids, a fluid cannot remain at rest under the presence of a shear stress . However, fluids can exert pressure surface normal normal to any contacting surface. If a point in the fluid is thought of as an infinitesimally small cube, then it follows from the principles of equilibrium that the pressure on every side of this unit of fluid must be equal.

Image StressEnergyTensor.svg thumb 250px right The energy momentum tensor of a perfect fluid contains only the diagonal components. In physics , a perfect fluid is a fluid that can be completely characterized by its rest frame energy density &rho and isotropic pressure p . Real fluids are sticky and contain and conduct heat. Perfect fluids are idealized models in which these possibilities are neglected. Specifically, perfect fluids have no shear stress es, viscosity , or heat conduction . In tensor notation, the Stress energy tensor energy momentum tensor of a perfect fluid can be written in the form math T mu nu rho p , U mu U nu p , eta mu nu , math where U is the velocity vector field of the fluid and where math eta mu nu math is the metric tensor of Minkowski spacetime . Perfect fluids admit a Lagrangian formulation, which allows the techniques used in field theory to be applied to fluids. In particular, this enables us to quantization physics quantize perfect fluid models. This Lagrangian formulation can be generalized, but unfortunately, heat conduction and anisotropic stresses cannot be treated in these generalized formulations. Perfect fluids are often used in general relativity to model idealized distributions of matter , such as in the interior of a star.

A quantum fluid can refer to a cluster of valence electrons moving together after they undergo fermionic condensate fermionic condensation . Under extremely high pressures and low temperatures electrons may condense into a quantum fluid. In such a state, electrical current can theoretically flow forever with a complete absence of voltage , meaning that its electric potential does not change, as in a superconductor . they are like a 5th state of matter Quantum fluids exhibit the remarkable property of remaining liquid at absolute zero temperature and zero pressure. This effect arises from their large zero point energy and the small interatomic forces, both of which prevent the formation of a solid phase. A quantum fluid can also refer to a superfluid made up of atoms .
