Generalized couette flow of a third-grade fluid with slip: The exact solutions

Abstract

The present note investigates the influence of slip on the generalized Couette flows of a third-grade fluid. Two flow problems are considered. The resulting equations and the boundary conditions are nonlinear. Analytical solutions of the governing nonlinear problems are found in closed form. © 2010 Verlag der Zeitschrift für Naturforschung, Tübingen.
