Abstract: | Plane shear flows of dilatant liquids are considered in the presence of a constant transverse velocity component of the liquid; this component arises from uniform injection (or suction) at the bounding surfaces. It is shown that the presence of transverse drift in the liquid influences the rate of propagation of the leading edge of the shear waves, and this has a number of effects on the flows.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 4, pp. 15–21, July–August, 1973. |
