Fluid dynamics

relation stating that the pressure jump across a curved fluid interface equals surface tension times the interface's mean curvature.

In fluid dynamics, Young-Laplace equation refers to relation stating that the pressure jump across a curved fluid interface equals surface tension times the interface's mean curvature. This meaning comes from Young (1805) in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London.[1]
