Field of 2D viscous waves from the surface of a vibrating cylinder

Resumo

The problem of determining the nonstationary nonlinear velocity field of a viscous incompressible liquid excited by the surface of tangentially vibrating cylinder has been solved numerically in the 2D approximation. It has been shown that the vibrating solid surface generates 2D viscous waves and a displacement flow. The trajectories of propagation of viscous waves and their velocities have been determined. The interaction of a viscous wave with the displacement flow has been analyzed in the first approximation; as a result of this interaction, the velocity field can not only be suppressed with increasing distance from the surface, but also enhanced.
