Abstract: When two inclusions with high contrast material properties are located close to each other in a homogeneous medium, stress may become arbitrarily large in the narrow region between them. In this paper, we investigate such stress concentration in the two-dimensional Stokes flow when inclusions are the two-dimensional cross sections of circular cylinders of the same radii and the background velocity field is linear. We construct two vector-valued functions which completely capture the singular behavior of the stress and derive an asymptotic representation formula for the stress in terms of these functions as the distance between the two cylinders tends to zero. We then show, using the representation formula, that the stress always blows up by proving that either the pressure or the shear stress component of the stress tensor blows up. The blow-up rate is shown to be $delt{a}^{-1/2}$, where $delta$ is the distance between the two cylinders. To our best knowledge, this work is the first to rigorously derive the asymptotic solution in the narrow region for the Stokes flow.
