Summary

An approximate solution to the flow past an impulsively started infinite plate in an elastico-viscous fluid is derived for the velocity and shearing stress. It is observed that the velocity increases with increasing the elastic parameterk and the shearing stress decreases with increasingk.

Zusammenfassung

Für den Fall der Strömung längs einer ruckartig in Bewegung gesetzten unendlichen Platte in einer viscoelastischen Flüssigkeit ist eine Näherungslösung für Geschwindigkeit und Scherspannungabgeleitet. Dabeiwurde beobachtet, daß die Geschwindigkeit mit Zunahme des Elastizitätsparametersk ansteigt und die Scherspannung mit zunehmendemk abnimmt.
