In this chapter it is shown that solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations can be derived for steady, fully developed flow of a constant-viscosity Newtonian fluid through a cylindrical duct. Such a flow is known as a Poiseuille flow. For a pipe of circular cross section, the term Hagen-Poiseuille flow is used. Solutions are also derived for shear-driven flow within the annular space between two concentric cylinders or in the space between two parallel plates when there is relative tangential movement between the wetted surfaces, termed Couette flows. The concepts of wetted perimeter and hydraulic diameter are introduced. It is shown how the viscometer equations result from the concentric-cylinder solutions. The pressure-driven flow of generalised Newtonian fluids is also discussed.

We derive explicit analytic expressions for the lateral force for two different configurations with corrugations, parallel plates and concentric cylinders. By making use of the multiple scattering formalism, we calculate the force for a scalar field under the influence of a delta-function potential that has sinusoidal dependence in one direction simulating the corrugations. By making a perturbative expansion in the amplitude of the corrugation we find the leading order for the corrugated concentric cylinders and the next-to-leading order for the corrugated parallel plates.

Abstract The solutions for three cases of retarded flow of a rigid-viscous material are given. These cases are: (a) Sliding parallel plates; (b) Couette flow between concentric cylinders; and (c) axial flow through a circular pipe. For Couette flow two types of loading-unloading paths are found. The results of this analysis explain some of the discrepancies between experimental results and theoretical predictions for a Bingham material.

The change in the current-potential distribution due to the relativistic variation of the mass of the electron has been calculated by suitable series expansions in the case of a plane parallel diode and has been shown to be considerable in the case of large power tubes.
