Relation To Compressibility
In some fields, a measure of the incompressibility of a flow is the change in density as a result of the pressure variations. This is best expressed in terms of the compressibility
If the compressibility is acceptably small, the flow is considered to be incompressible.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:
“The difference between objective and subjective extension is one of relation to a context solely.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“There is a certain standard of grace and beauty which consists in a certain relation between our nature, such as it is, weak or strong, and the thing which pleases us. Whatever is formed according to this standard pleases us, be it house, song, discourse, verse, prose, woman, birds, rivers, trees, room, dress, and so on. Whatever is not made according to this standard displeases those who have good taste.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
