Abstract

The paper discusses the flow generated by rotary oscillations of a spheroid (prolate and oblate) in incompressible micropolar fluid. The velocity and microrotation components are determined explicitly in terms of spheroidal wave functions and are expressed in infinite series form. The couple on the oscillating spheroid is evaluated and numerical studies are undertaken to examine the effects of the geometric parameter and material constant parameters of the fluid.
