Abstract
In this note the velocity field and the adequate shear stress corresponding to the unsteady flow of a fractional Maxwell fluid due to a constantly accelerating circular cylinder have been determined by means of the Laplace and finite Hankel transforms. The obtained solutions satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions. They can easily be reduced to give similar solutions for ordinary Maxwell and Newtonian fluids. Finally, the influence of pertinent parameters on the fluid motion, as well as a comparison between models, is underlined by graphical illustrations.
