Abstract
Classical fluid mechanics developed during the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries and the first half of the XXth century dealt mainly with flows over smooth or rough surfaces. The idealization of a sand roughness suggested by L. Prandtl and I. Nickuradze was quite sufficient and successful for contemporaneous problems and brought light to many engineering inventions, as well as for the applications of fluid mechanics in hydraulics and meteorology of that time. No real attention was paid to the fluid motion between roughness elements.
