Abstract
Abstract Couette flow with nonhomogeneous partial-slip stripes on one plate is studied. Drag and flowrate are found by an efficient eigenfunction expansion and point match method. Longitudinal motion (parallel to the stripes) experiences lower drag than transverse motion. As the gap width between the two plates approaches zero, the drag increases to a finite value if the stripes have partial slip, as comparison to the infinite value for no slip. Analysis of the region near the junction of a perfect stick-slip boundary shows a weak stress singularity while there is no singularity for partial slip junctions.
