Much has been accomplished by assuming that the motion is slow, and that the squares and products of the velocity components may therefore be neglected. It has indeed been held that this is the only useful proceeding, since the equations of motion are themselves formed on the assmnption of a linear stress-strain relation, and this is probably only justifiable if the motion is sufficiently slow. On the other hand, there is very little evidence of the breakdown of the linear law in the case Of fluids, and in any case it is only possible to test its validity by an investigation of solutions which do not require the motion to be s] ow. It is, therefore, of some importance to obtain some solutions which are free from this limitation. In the present paper we confine our attention to plane motion. Orthogonal curvilinear coordinates are employed, and we discuss the possibility of so choosing them that either the stream-lines or the lines of constant vorticity are identical with one family of the coordinate curves. The most important solutions obtained are those which correspond to (1) the motion round a canal in the form of a circular arc,(2) the motion between rotating circular cylinders with a given normal flow over the surfaces, as ma centrifugal pump,(3) the flow between two infinite planes inclined at any angle.
