Abstract: By applying transformations to the dynamical equation for the longitudinal vibrations of a nonlinear model string, we obtain a set of equations which describes the one-dimensional flow of an ideal compressible polytropic fluid. Thus it is shown that the nonlinear string problem is formally equivalent to the classical problem of fluid flow analyzed by Riemann and by others.

A more general form of Eq. (7), a form that takes account of real fluid viscosity, has been derived and used as a starting point for non-Riemannian fluid flow theory; see: G. Rosen, Phys. of Fluids 2, 517 (1959); 3, 188 (1960); 3, 191 (1960)
