Extract

In previous papers [1, 2], the authors have solved the Stokes flow problem for certain axially symmetric bodies, with the velocity at infinity uniform and parallel to the axis of symmetry. Each of the bodies considered possessed the property that the meridional section intercepted a segment of the axis of symmetry. In the present paper this assumption is removed; in addition, we shall consider the particular case of the Stokes flow about a torus.
