#Fluid #Mechanics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_m...) 

Fluid mechanics is the branch of #physics concerned with the mechanics of #fluids (#liquids, #gases, and #plasmas) and the #forces on them. It has applications in a wide range of disciplines, including #mechanical, #civil, #chemical and #biomedical #engineering, #geophysics, #oceanography, #meteorology, #astrophysics, and #biology. 

#Incompressible flow (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incompr...) 

Incompressible flow refers to a flow in which the #material #density is constant within a fluid parcel—an infinitesimal volume that moves with the flow #velocity. An equivalent statement that implies incompressibility is that the divergence of the flow velocity is zero.

Granular Material (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granula...) 

A #granular #material is a #conglomeration of #discrete solid, #macroscopic #particles characterized by a loss of #energy whenever the particles interact. Some examples of granular materials are snow, nuts, coal, sand, rice, coffee, corn flakes, fertilizer, and bearing balls.   Granular materials are commercially important in applications as diverse as #pharmaceutical #industry, #agriculture, and energy #production.

#Nanoparticles #agglomerates (https://nanocomposix.com/pages/useful...) 

The #agglomeration state of a nanoparticle is a critical parameter that should be known at each stage of nanomaterial processing. The vast majority of dried nanoparticles are permanently agglomerated into clusters that consists of tens, hundreds, or even thousands of individual nanoparticles, significantly increasing the effective size of the nanoparticles and potentially altering the nanoparticle’s #physical and #optical #properties.

Chemical engineering is a discipline influencing numerous areas of technology. In broad terms, chemical engineers conceive and design processes to produce, transform and transport materials — beginning with experimentation in the laboratory followed by implementation of the technology in full-scale production.

A common question that researchers get from students and the general public is "what is your research good for?" To answer this question, it is best to establish the difference between basic (fundamental) and applied research.
