Abstract

An analysis is made of unsteady viscous flow generated by starting to move a flat plate impulsively, in a direction normal to its width. The unsteady Stokes equations are reduced to an integral equation with respect to the pressure difference before and behind the plate. The equation is solved by means of a variational method, and the drag coefficient C D is shown to be given by
