Fundamental solutions in the theory of microfluids

This paper is concerned with the theory of non-heat-conducting microfluids. We consider a specialized microfluid continuum theory in which the micromotions consist of the intrinsic rotations and stretch. First, we establish a representation of Galerkin type for the solutions to the field equations. Then, we derive the fundamental solutions for the differential system governing the motion in the case of steady vibrations. © 2008 Università degli Studi di Ferrara.
