Particles held by springs in a linear shear flow exhibit oscillatory motion
arXiv:physics/0604208 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.73.060801
Abstract
The dynamics of small spheres, which are held by linear springs in a low Reynolds number shear flow at neighboring locations is investigated. The flow elongates the beads and the interplay of the shear gradient with the nonlinear behavior of the hydrodynamic interaction among the spheres causes in a large range of parameters a bifurcation to a surprising oscillatory bead motion. The parameter ranges, wherein this bifurcation is either super- or subcritical, are determined.
