On the unsteady rotational flow of fractional Oldroyd-B fluid in cylindrical domains

This paper concerned with the unsteady rotational flow of fractional Oldroyd-B fluid, between two infinite coaxial circular cylinders. To solve the problem we used the finite Hankel and Laplace transforms. The motion is produced by the inner cylinder that, at time t=0+, is subject to a time-dependent rotational shear. The solutions that have been obtained, presented under series form in terms of the generalized G functions, satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions. The corresponding solutions for ordinary Oldroyd-B, fractional and ordinary Maxwell, fractional and ordinary second grade, and Newtonian fluids, performing the same motion, are obtained as limiting cases of general solutions.
