Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0723.00039.] The author has done intensive studies of some recent works on swirling flows of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. Initially von Kármán with the help of similarity transformations studied a steady axially symmetric flow of a linearly viscous fluid, induced by the rotation of an infinite disk. Then \textit{R. Berker} [Arch. Mech. 31, 265-280 (1979; Zbl 0415.76026)] considered the possibilities of solutions for not-axially symmetric flow. He established a one parameter family of solutions for the flow of classical linearly viscous fluid between two plane parallel disks. Then \textit{S. V. Parter} with the author [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 86, 305-315 (1984; Zbl 0594.76022)] re- examined the problem of flow with different angular velocities. \textit{A. Z. Szeri, C.-Y. Lai} and \textit{K. R. Rajagopal} [J. Fluid Mech. 157, 471- 492 (1985; Zbl 0574.76032) and J. Fluid Mech. 146, 203-225 (1984; Zbl 0565.76037)] computed the flow numerically and proved the existence theorem. Further, \textit{K. R. Rajagopal} and \textit{A. S. Gupta} [Int. J. Eng. Sci. 19, 1009-1014 (1981; Zbl 0466.76008)] examined the possibilities of the existence of asymmetric solutions for special class of viscoelastic fluids. Finally, this paper seems to be a good compilation of the works carried out by different authors.
