Viscous Flow past a Body Translating by Time-Periodic Motion with Zero Average

We study existence, uniqueness, regularity and asymptotic spatial behavior of a Navier-Stokes flow past a body moving by a time-periodic translational motion of period $T$, and with zero average. For example, $\mathcal{B}$ moves in an oscillating fashion. The flow is also time-periodic with same period $T$. However, sufficiently far" from the body, the oscillatory component decays faster than the averaged component, so that the flow shows there a distinctive steady-state character. This provides a rigorous proof of the steady streaming" phenomenon.
