Abstract: The boundary layer equations, formulated in cylindrical polar coordinates, are applied to a circular cylinder in a slightly viscous stream which is oscillating with a high reduced frequency. The resistance is correctly calculated to the second order. The first order part, $45^\circ$ out of phase, is due to the interaction of viscosity with acceleration. The second order part, $-90^\circ$ out of phase, is due to the interaction of viscosity with curvature. The interaction of viscosity with inertia, which is of second order also, contributes no resistance.
