TLDR
In this paper, the time oscillatory viscous flow past a semi-infinite flat plate is solved numerically using a Fourier decomposition in time, which avoids any difficulties associated with transient solutions, and an iterative line relaxation scheme is used to solve the truncated system.About:

Steady streaming: A key mixing mechanism in low-Reynolds-number acinar flows
TL;DR: It is concluded that significant convective mixing in the duct and within an alveolus could originate only in the first few generations of the acinar tree as a result of nonzero inertia, flow asymmetry, and large Keulegan-Carpenter (K(C)) number.

Study of airflow and particle transport in acinar airways of the human lung
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical and image-based model of pulmonary acinus is used to study airflow and particle transport in the presence of wall motion in a three-dimensional honeycomb-like geometry.

Viscous and resistive eddies near a sharp corner
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when either or both of the boundaries is a rigid wall and when the angle between the planes is less than a certain critical angle, any flow sufficiently near the corner must consist of a sequence of eddies of decreasing size and rapidly decreasing intensity.

Analytical and numerical studies of the structure of steady separated flows
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical solution, based on a linearized model, is obtained for an eddy bounded by a circular streamline, which reveals the flow development from a completely viscous eddy at low Reynolds number to an inviscid rotational core at high Reynolds number, in the manner envisaged by Batchelor.

Boundary-Layer Flow Near the Trailing Edge of a Flat Plate
TL;DR: In this paper, a second order correction to Goldstein's stream function is obtained to take into account the pressure gradient induced locally in the external flow, and is found to overtake the first order term when the non-dimensional distance from the edge is O(R^{ - 3/8} ).

On the flow near the trailing edge of a flat plate II
TL;DR: In this paper, an incompressible fluid of density p and kinematic viscosity v in an infinite two-dimensional domain is assumed to have a uniform velocity U∞, in the direction of the positive x*-axis of a rectangular Cartesian coordinate system Ox* y*, at large distances from a fixed flat plate of zero thickness which occupies the interval −l < x* < 0 of the line Ox*.
