Abstract
Consideration is given to the motion and force equilibrium of a local process (a soliton) in a continuous fluid medium. Integral characteristics of a soliton are introduced. An equation of motion, a global equation of force equilibrium, and equations of force equilibrium along individual axes are obtained that include the integral characteristics of a soliton. These equations are shown to permit direct evaluation of the interrelationship of the most important parameters of a local process based on generalized information on its structure.
