Slow Flow of a Viscoelastic Fluid Past a Circular Cylinder

Flow around a cylinder is important in the motion of microorganisms found in biological viscoelastic fluids that propel themselves by flagella. Flow around a cylinder experiments are difficult to perform because of the influence of the walls and ends. An approach was developed to measure the drag on...
