This paper reports an analytical study on the induced-charge electro-osmosis (ICEO) within a leaky dielectric annulus subjected to an AC electric field. An interesting non-monotonic variation of the ICEO flow with the increasing AC frequency is revealed. This is different from the monotonic decrease...
