Abstract
Differential schemes have been constructed by using the integro-differential formulation of the equation of motion in stresses. The problem of periodic flow of the purely-viscous non-Newtonian liquid on a harmonically oscillating plate has been solved numerically for extremally high values of the Reynolds number. The velocity and stress fields as well as estimates of the flow enhancement E are given for the quasi-oscillatory regime, Fr → ∞, for the pseudoplastic liquid with the extremally low flow index, n = 0.15.
