Are you referring to the p grad(v) term? In that case it is there because v grad(p) (from the math books) has been integrated by parts and we have left out the resulting boundary term. (v grad(p) * dx = v * p * n * ds - p * div(v) * dx) Other than that I think its correct except from a few missing dots.

Best regards

Mikael

not quite, I was referring to the ":" in the middle of the expression. Is that just a typo?

That's a contraction of two second rank tensors. It's not a typo, google it:-)
