Double boundary layers in oscillatory viscous flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of a steady-streaming flow induced by the Reynolds stresses in the oscillatory boundary layer was studied and it was shown that if the characteristic Reynolds number of the steady streaming is large, there is an outer boundary layer within which the steady streaming velocity decays to zero, and the thickness of this outer layer is large compared with that of the inner layer, but small compared with a typical dimension of the body.

Steady flow in a channel or tube with an accelerating surface velocity. An exact solution to the Navier—Stokes equations with reverse flow

TL;DR: In this paper, an exact solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for the flow in a channel or tube with an accelerating surface velocity is presented, where the equations of motion are reduced to a single ordinary differential equation for the similarity function which is solved numerically.
