Abstract
In order to apply the general equation of Article 2 of the preceding section to this type of fluid, it will be observed that the term S λ δL must be deleted because the condition of incompressibility to which this term refers does not exist in this case. But, on the other hand, the action of elasticity which resists compression and which tends to dilate the fluid must be accounted for.
