Solutions to Navier-Stokes: Poiseuille and Couette Flow

MEC516/BME516 Fluid Mechanics, Chapter 4 Differential Relations for Fluid Flow, Part 5: Two exact solutions to the incompressible continuity and Navier-Stokes equations. One solution is for laminar steady flow between fixed parallel plates, where the flow is driven by a pressure gradient (Poiseuille Flow). The other solution is for laminar steady flow between parallel plates where the flow is driven only by the motion of the upper plate (Couette Flow).
