Abstract
Steady-state solutions of two mixed initial-boundary value problems are presented in equivalent forms. They describe isothermal permanent motions of incompressible Burgers' fluids over an infinite flat plate that applies time-dependent shear stresses to the fluid. More exactly, they are the first exact solutions for motions of Burgers' fluids with differential expressions of the shear stress or velocity on the boundary. The obtained results are designed to make equivalent solutions for motions caused by an infinite plate moving in its plane at velocities that seem to be similar to previous shear stresses. It is simple to limit all results for the purpose of providing efficient results for incompressible Oldroyd-B, Maxwell, second grade and Newtonian fluids undergoing comparable motions. They may also be used to estimate how long it will take to get to a steady or permanent state.
