Model inspiration

This morning I started my day with a journal article that explored both the practical and philosophical (yes... philosophical) implications of the no-slip boundary condition in fluid dynamics.  Before I could even finish the paper (and get to the philosophical component of the manuscript) I was struck with an idea to develop a numerical model to simulate a flow field with apparent slip.

For the rest of the day I was sucked into developing my program.  I am pleased with the result, hence my "early" post this evening, as I am now done for the day.  At this point I don't want to go into the mechanics of the software or work through how I plan to implement my simulations as it's still early in the process; more to come in the future.
