The only candidate the far field allows, and the wall it slips past
The general Stokes solution has four constants; the condition at infinity kills two of them and fixes a third, leaving one to satisfy two conditions at the wall. Setting the stream function to zero there uses it up, and the tangential velocity that remains is exactly twice the free stream — for every radius, every speed, and every fluid.

viscous-limit. The drawing above is what it returns with no arguments at all; every
call below passes it something, because a placement that passes nothing draws whichever member
of the family the generator happens to default to rather than the one its essay argues about.
It is also the blast radius. Changing viscous-limit changes every figure listed here
at once, and on this site it may change what they assert as well as what they show —
which is what has to be rebuilt and looked at before the change is believed.
Where it is called
What each of these essays asks for instead of the defaults is on the regime index, which reads the parameters back out of the finished figures rather than out of the placements.
