For an oscillating boundary of period and amplitude ε, it is known that the asymptotic behavior when ε tends to zero of a three-dimensional viscous fluid satisfying slip boundary conditions is the same as if we assume no-slip (adherence) boundary conditions. Here we consider the case where the period is still ε but the amplitude is δε with δε/ε converging to zero. We show that if [Formula: see text] tends to infinity, the equivalence between the slip and no-slip conditions still holds. If the limit of [Formula: see text] belongs to (0, +∞) (critical size), then we still have the slip boundary conditions in the limit but with a bigger friction coefficient. In the case where [Formula: see text] tends to zero the boundary behaves as a plane boundary. Besides the limit equation, we also obtain an approximation (corrector result) of the pressure and the velocity in the strong topology of L2 and H1 respectively.
