Abstract
An attempt has been made to study the path of a vortex in a semi-infinite region bounded by a straight wall with steady uniform stream at infinity parallel to the wall and past a circular island at a finite distance from the wall. A suitable transformation has been found out with the help of which the flow itself and the positions of the image system of the vortex in the original plane have been obtained. It has been found that stationary points exist on the island perpendicular to the wall through the centre of the island one between the wall and the Island for positive ratios of the strength of the uniform stream and vortex and two, in case of negative ratios-one between the plane wall and Island and other away from the island.
