Consider the flow field given at the right side (flow over a circular cylinder) 

Calculate the two linear strain rates in the rθ-plane; i.e., calculate Ɛrr andƐθθ· 

Discuss whether fluid line segments stretch (or shrink) in this flow field.

b. Discuss the compressibility (or incompressibility) of this flow .

c. Calculate εrθ  the shear strain rate in the rθ-plane. Discuss whether fluid particles in this flow deform with shear or not
