V-shaped body

We shall now investigate a plane problem involving laminar flow past a V-shaped body (a wedge). In a potential flow of an ideal fluid past the front critical point... 

The steady-state flow in the plane boundary layer near the surface of a V-shaped body is described by system (1.8.1), where the F-axis is directed along the normal to the wedge surface (given by F = 0), p is the fluid density, Vx and Vy are, respectively, the longitudinal and transverse components of the fluid velocity, and U = U(X) is defined by Eq. (1.8.4). 

The steady-state flow of a power-law fluid in a plane boundary layer near the surface of a V-shaped body is described elsewhere by the system of equations [445]... 

This test measures resistance to scratching by a standardized tool (ASTM, 1978). A comer of a diamond cube is drawn across the sample surface under a force of 29.4 mN applied to the body diagonal of the cube, creating a V-shaped groove its width A, in micrometres, is measured microscopically. The hardness is given by ...
