Consider a body moving in an infinite fluid domain, as illustrated by figure 1.

**Figure:** Rigid body translating at constant speed $\vec{U}$ in an unbounded fluid domain.
$\begin{figure} \begin{center} \epsfig{file=lfig101.eps,height=1.5in,clip=}\end{center}\end{figure}$

We would like to know the flow field $\vec{v}$ generated by the body motion. How we can proceed?
