Introduction
It is a well-established fact that the non-Newtonian fluids play an appropriate and
important role in industry and technological applications. Serval researchers in the
field cite a large variety of applications in rheological problems in biological sciences,
geophysics, and the chemical and petroleum industries (Yu and Lin, 1998). This is
due to the rheological properties of non-Newtonian fluids. The understanding of
flows of such fluids has progressed via a number of theoretical, computational,
and experimental efforts. The resulting equations of such fluids are in general of
higher order than the classical Navier-Stokes equations, and one needs additional
conditions for a unique solution (Rajagopal, 1995; Rajagopal and Kaloni, 1989).
Specifically, to obtain an exact analytic solution for such flows is not an easy
task. In spite of several challenges, many investigations regarding the exact analytic
solutions for flows of non-Newtonian fluids have been performed (Rajagopal, 1982,

2007; Wang and Tan, 2008; Hayat et al., 2008; Fetecau et al., 2009a,b).
There are several models to describe the rheological properties of nonNewtonian fluids (Dunn and Rajagopal, 1995; Rajagopal, 1993). Non-Newtonian
fluids are generally divided in three types: differential, integral, and rate-type. The
fluids that take into account elastic and memory effects belong to rate-type fluids.
The Maxwell and Oldroyd B fluids are the simplest rate-type fluids. But these fluids
do have not enough rheological properties to explain many real fluids such as cheese
in food products and asphalt in geomechanics. In 1935 the one-dimensional rate-type
model known as the Burgers model (1935) was put in a thermodynamic framework,
which was later extended to the frame-indifferent three-dimensional form by
Krishnan and Rajagopal (2004). This model has been successfully used to describe
the motion of the earths mantle. The Burgers model is the preferred model to
describe the response of asphalt and asphalt concrete (Lee and Markwick, 1937).
This model is mostly used to model other geological structures, such as olivine rocks
(Tan et al., 2001) and the propagation of seismic waves in the interior of the earth
(Peltier et al., 1981). In the literature, the vast majority of the flows of the rate-type
fluids has been discussed using Maxwell and Oldroyd B models, and the Burgers
model has not received much attention in spite of its diverse applications. We here
mention some of the studies (Ravindran et al., 2004; Hayat et al., 2008b; Fetecau
et al., 2010b; Khan et al., 2010a) made by using Burgers model.
Generally, there are three types of boundary value problems in fluid mechanics:
(a) when the velocity is given on the boundary, (b) when the shear stress is given on
the boundary, and (c) the mixed boundary value problems. From the theoretical and
application points of view, all three types of boundary value problems are of interest
and important. There are a large number of articles in which the velocity is given on
the boundary. Interested readers can see for instance, the papers (Tong, 2010; Wang
and Yu, 2009; Khan et al., 2009, 2010b; Shah and Qi, 2010; Tong and Shan, 2009;
Zheng et al., 2010; Fetecau et al., 2009b; Shah, 2009; Khan, 2009; Kang and Xu,
2009) and therein related references. Unfortunately, there are few exact solutions
corresponding to cases 2 and 3. To the best of our knowledge, the first exact
solutions for motions of non-Newtonian fluids due to a given shear stress on the
boundary are those of Waters and King (1970), Bandelli et al. (1995), and Erdogan
(2003) over an infinite plate and Bandelli and Rajagopal (1995) in cylindrical
domains. However little work, appeared for motions of non-Newtonian fluids in cylindrical domains due to a shear stress given on the boundary (Akhtar and Jamil,
2008; Siddique and Vieru, 2009; Fetecau et al., 2009c, d, 2010c, d; Jamil and Fetecau,
2010; Siddique and Sajid, 2011).
The objective of present article is two-fold. First, we solve a problem for the
motion of a generalized Burgers fluid in which the velocity is given on one part of
the boundary and the shear stress on the other part. Second, it is to extend the results
of Bandelli and Rajagopal (1995, Sect. 5) to rate-type fluids, namely to Oldroyd B,
Burgers, and generalized Burgers fluids. The general solutions for Oldroyd B fluids
can be immediately specialized to similar solutions for Maxwell, second grade, and
Newtonian fluids, while the solutions for Burgers fluids can be obtained as limiting
cases of those for generalized Burgers fluid. These solutions satisfy both the governing equations and all imposed initial and boundary conditions. The large-time solutions for Newtonian fluid and transient solutions for generalized Burgers fluid are
also determined and the effect of various parameters on transient solutions is

discussed. Furthermore, for small values of the material parameters, k2 and k4 or k1,
k2, k3, and k4, the general solutions corresponding to generalized Burgers fluid are
reduced to those for Oldroyd B and Newtonian fluids, respectively. Finally, in order
to reveal some relevant physical aspects of the obtained results, the diagrams of
the velocity and the shear stress are depicted against r for different values of t and 90
of the rheological parameters. A comparison between generalized Burgers, OldrydB, and Newtonian fluid models is also presented.

where q and V are respectively the fluid density and the velocity field and r

The Cauchy stress tensor T for an incompressible generalized Burgers fluid is
characterized by the following constitutive equations (Fetecau et al., 2010b; Khan
et al., 2010b; Tong, 2010; Tong and Shan, 2009):

where pI denotes the indeterminate spherical stress, S is the extra-stress tensor,
A L LT is the first Rivlin-Ericksen tensor (L being the velocity gradient), l is 105
the dynamic viscosity, k1 and k3(<k1) are relaxation and retardation times, k2 and
k4 are the new material parameters of the generalized Burgers fluid (having the
dimension of t2), and d=dt denotes the upper convected derivative defined by

Into the above relation, d=dt is the usual material time derivative.
This model includes as special cases the Burgers model (for k4 0), Oldroyd B
model (for k2 k4 0), Maxwell model (for k2 k3 k4 0), and the Newtonian
fluid model when k1 k2 k3 k4 0. In some special flows, like those considered
here, the governing equations corresponding to generalized Burgers fluid resemble
those for second grade fluids (when k1 k2 k4 0).
For the problem under consideration we assume a velocity field V and an
extra-stress tensor S of the form

where eh is the unit vector in the h-direction of a cylindrical coordinate system r, h, z. 120
For these flows the constraint of incompressibility is automatically satisfied. If the
fluid is at rest up to the moment t 0, then

and f is a constant, is applied to the inner cylinder. Due to the shear, the fluid is
gradually moved. Its velocity is of the form (5)1 while the governing equations

are given by Equations (8) and (9). The appropriate initial and boundary conditions are

Of course, it is easy to see that s(R1, t) given by Equation (10) is just the solution
of Equation (13) Furthermore, making k1 ; k2 , and k4 ! 0 into Equation (13) reduces
to the boundary condition (5.3) used by Bandelli and Rajagopal (1995). It corresponds to a problem with constantly accelerated shear on a part of the boundary,
namely

In order to solve the partial differential equations (8) and (9), with the initial
and boundary conditions (12) and (13), we shall use the Laplace and finite Hankel
transforms.

Applying the Laplace transform to Equation (9) and having in mind the initial and

sideration for these parameters. The effects of k1 and k3 on the decay of the transients, as the results from Figures 1 and 2 show, are opposite. The required time to
reach the large-time state increases with respect to k1 and decreases with regard to
k3. It also decreases if the kinematic viscosity of the fluid n decreases.
Generally speaking, the large-time solutions for unsteady motions of Newtonian 300
or non-Newtonian fluids are important for those who need to eliminate transients
from their rheological measurements. This is the reason that an important problem
regarding the technical relevance of these solutions is to determine the approximate
time after which the fluid is moving according to the large-time solutions. More
exactly, in practice it is necessary to known the required time to reach the large-time 305
state. It can be easily obtained by graphical illustrations.

as those corresponding to second grade and Maxwell fluids, have been obtained as
limiting cases of the general solutions for Oldroyd B fluids. The velocity field corresponding to a Newtonian fluid, as well as that for a second grade fluid, is in accordance (up to a sign, due to a type error) to that obtained in Bandelli and Rajagopal
(1995), Eq. (5.17) and corresponds to a constantly accelerated shear ft2 on the 325
boundary.
Figure 6 was prepared to show the influence of the time t on the velocity v(r, t)
and the shear stress s(r, t). As expected, it clearly shows that both the velocity and
the shear stress (in absolute value) are increasing functions of t. Figures 7 and 8 show
the influence of the relaxation time k1 and the rheological parameter k2 on the fluid 330
motion. Their influence on the shear stress is qualitatively the same but the effect on
the velocity is opposite. The velocity of the fluid is a deceasing function with respect
to k1 and an increasing one with regard to k2. Figures 9 and 10 show the influence of
the retardation time k3 and the rheological parameter k4 on the fluid motion. Qualitatively, their effect on the fluid velocity is almost the same. In exchange, the shear 335

Conclusions
350
In this study, exact analytic expressions for the velocity w(r, t) and the shear stress
s(r, t) corresponding to the unsteady motion of an incompressible generalized Burgers fluid between two infinite coaxial circular cylinders are obtained by means of
integral transforms. The motion of the fluid is due to the inner cylinder that after
time t 0 applies an accelerated shear to the fluid. The solutions that have been 355
obtained are presented under series form in terms of the usual Bessell functions
J1(.), J2(.), Y1(.), and Y2(.), and can immediately be reduced to similar solutions
for Burgers fluid. Direct computations show that they satisfy all imposed initial
and boundary conditions.
19
For completion, as well as for a check of the results, similar solutions for Old- 360
royd B fluids have been also established and the corresponding solutions for Maxwell, second grade, and Newtonian fluids, performing the same motion, were
obtained as limiting cases. The solutions for second grade and Newtonian fluids,
as results from Equations (14) and (41), correspond to a constantly accelerated shear
ft2 on the boundary. The main outcomes obtained in this study are:
365
. The general solutions (25) and (30) are presented under simple forms as a sum of
the large-time and transient solutions. These solutions can be easily particularized
to give similar solutions for Burgers fluids.
. The correctness of these solutions has been tested by graphical illustrations.
More exactly, we showed that for small values of k2 and k4 or k1, k2, k3, and
k4, their diagrams are almost identical to those corresponding to Oldroyd B
and Newtonian fluids, respectively.
If the rheological parameters ki > 0 with i 1, 2, 3, 4 satisfy the inequality
p
k1 k3 k2 k4 > 2 k1 k3 k4 , then for large times the general solutions for Burgers and generalized Burgers fluids, as well as those for Oldroyd B, Maxwell,
second grade, and Newtonian fluids, tend to the corresponding large-time
solutions.
. The velocity w(r, t), as well as the shear stress s(r, t) in absolute value, is an
increasing function with respect to t and a decreasing one with regard to r.
. The kinematic viscosity n of the fluid has considerable influence on the fluid
motion. The velocity of the fluid is a decreasing function of n on the whole flow
domain and the shear stress (in absolute value) increases.
. Qualitatively, the relaxation time k1 and the rheological parameter k2 have similar
effects on the shear stress. The shear stress is a decreasing function with respect to
the two parameters. Their effects on the velocity are opposite.
. The other two parameters, k3 and k4, have similar effects on the velocity. More
exactly, the velocity of the fluid is a decreasing function with respect to these parameters. However, their effects on the shear stress are opposite.
. As was expected, in comparison with Oldroyd B and Burgers fluids, the Newtonian fluid is the swiftest and the generalized Burgers fluid is the slowest. Furthermore, the non-Newtonian effects disappear in time.
