Flow of a viscoelastic fluid with the fractional Maxwell model between two side walls perpendicular to a plate

The unsteady flow of a viscoelastic fluid with the fractional Maxwell model between two side walls perpendicular to a plate is investigated. Exact solutions for the velocity field are established by means of the Fourier and Laplace transforms. The similar solutions for Maxwell and Newtonian fluids can be obtained as limiting cases of our results. In the absence of side walls, all solutions that have been determined reduce to those corresponding to the motion over an infinite plate.
