Abstract
We present some exact solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations which describe the development of eccentric flows in a rotating fluid. In particular, it is seen how an eccentric solid body rotation behaviour can be developed.
Resumé
On décrit le développement de l'écoulement excentrique dans un liquide tournant quand il y a des axes différents. Des solutions exactes des équations de Navier et Stokes s'offrirent; une solution particulière représente l'écoulement excentrique d'une masse solide.
