flow, respectively. Hence To = fcvotdt where v0 is the undisturbed velocity field given by (1) and the subscript t indicates the tangential component. By Stokes' theorem, r0=//,(curl Vo);dA = -UkA where A is the area of /. Hence in our example, r0= -Ukird1. If we substitute this for T in (9), assuming, as Tsien does,6 that ri = 0, then our result (9) reduces to (10). ' The author is indebted to Dr. Tsien for pointing this out. He had at first mistakenly supposed that Tsien's result was based on the assumption F = 0.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
