Self-Similar Unsteady Flow of a Sisko Fluid in a Cylindrical Tube Undergoing Translation

The governing nonlinear equation for unidirectional flow of a Sisko fluid in a cylindrical tube due to translation of the tube wall is modelled in cylindrical polar coordinates. The exact steady-state solution for the nonlinear problem is obtained. The reduction of the nonlinear initial value proble...
