Define the rate of strain tensor in terms of the velocity components .
Write down the relation between , the pressure and the stress tensor in an incompressible Newtonian fluid of viscosity .
Prove that is the local rate of dissipation per unit volume in the fluid.
Incompressible fluid of density and viscosity occupies the semi-infinite domain above a rigid plane boundary that oscillates with velocity , where and are constants. The fluid is at rest at . Determine the velocity field produced by the boundary motion after any transients have decayed.
Evaluate the time-averaged rate of dissipation in the fluid, per unit area of boundary.
