Abstract

The Dirichlet problem for the Stokes equations outside open curves on the plane is studied. The existence and uniqueness of a solution is proved. An integral representation for the solution is obtained in the form of potentials whose densities are determined from a uniquely solvable system of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. The singularities of derivatives of the velocities at the endpoints of the open curves are analyzed. A closed-form solution of the problem is constructed for the case in which the open curves are straight line segments.
