Abstract
Results for three interrelated problems are obtained by making use of solutions of boundary-value problems obtained in a different context. The first one concerns a thin rigid circular disk rotating in a slow stream of viscous fluid, both when the fluid is conducting and when it is non-conducting. For the case of a conducting fluid formulae are given for both small and large Hartmann numbers. The second problem concerns a disk performing simple harmonic rotary oscillations about its axis of symmetry in a non-conducting viscous fluid which is at rest at infinity. The last problem is that of an arbitrary axisymmetric solid oscillating about its axis of symmetry in a bounded viscous fluid, and the solution is illustrated by the case of an oscillating disk.
