Illustrations of the “deformation structure” and “displacement structure.” a The profile of a streak line. For each fluid particle, the distance from the plate and the displacement are calculated and plotted. b Non-dimensional displacement profile (dashed line) for a semi-infinite flat plate. Solid lines indicate the distance at which each fluid particle is distributed at a right angle to the apical portion of the plate over the defined time period. Dotted lines indicate the stream lines
