Extract

In a previous paper the present writer gave a solution of the problem of determining the circulation around a thin elliptic cylinder in a steady stream of slightly viscous fluid when the major axis of the cylinder is inclined at a small angle to the direction of the flow at infinity. The present note gives a largely qualitative analysis of the manner in which this circulation is built up when the motion of the fluid or cylinder is started instantaneously from rest with a given velocity.
