Abstract: | We solve analytically the cessation flows of a Newtonian fluid in circular and plane Couette geometries assuming that wall slip occurs provided that the wall shear stress exceeds a critical threshold, the slip yield stress. In steady-state, slip occurs only beyond a critical value of the angular velocity of the rotating inner cylinder in circular Couette flow or of the speed of the moving upper plate in plane Couette flow. Hence, in cessation, the classical no-slip solution holds if the corresponding wall speed is below the critical value. Otherwise, slip occurs only initially along both walls. Beyond a first critical time, slip along the fixed wall ceases, and beyond a second critical time slip ceases also along the initially moving wall. Beyond this second critical time no slip is observed and the decay of the velocity is faster. The velocity decays exponentially in all regimes and the decay is reduced with slip. The effects of slip and the slip yield stress are discussed. |
