Class
    Foam::fixedShearStressFvPatchVectorField

Group
    grpTurbulenceBoundaryConditions

Description
    This boundary condition sets a user-defined shear stress
    constant and uniform across a given patch by using the expression:

    \f[
        tau_0 = -\nu_{eff} \frac{dU}{dn}
    \f]

Usage
    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type             fixedShearStress;
        tau              <vector>;

        // Inherited entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property  | Description                      | Type | Reqd | Deflt
      type      | Type name: fixedShearStress      | word | yes  | -
      tau       | Shear stress                   | vector | yes  | -
    \endtable
