In this note we introduce speed and direction variables to describe the motion of incompressible viscous flows. Fluid velocity ${\bf u}$ is decomposed into ${\bf u}=u{\bf r}$, with $u=|{\bf u}|$ and ${\bf r}={\bf u}/|{\bf u}|$. We consider…

Stokes flow equations, used to model creeping flow, are a commonly used simplification of the Navier--Stokes equations. The simplification is valid for flows where the inertial forces are negligible compared to the viscous forces. In…
