Spherical particle sedimenting in weakly viscoelastic shear flow
J. Einarsson, B. Mehlig
We consider the dynamics of a small spherical particle driven through an unbounded viscoelastic shear flow by an external force. We give analytical solutions to both the mobility p…
Angular velocity of a spheroid log rolling in a simple shear at small Reynolds number
J. Meibohm, F. Candelier, T. Rosén +3
We analyse the angular velocity of a small neutrally buoyant spheroid log rolling in a simple shear. When the effect of fluid inertia is negligible the angular velocity equals…
Inertial-particle accelerations in turbulence: a Lagrangian closure
S. Vajedi, K. Gustavsson, B. Mehlig +1
The distribution of particle accelerations in turbulence is intermittent, with non-Gaussian tails that are quite different for light and heavy particles. In this article we analyse…
Angular dynamics of small crystals in viscous flow
J. Fries, J. Einarsson, B. Mehlig
The angular dynamics of a very small ellipsoidal particle in a viscous flow decouples from its translational dynamics, and the particle angular velocity is given by Jeffery's theor…
Angular dynamics of a small particle in turbulence
F. Candelier, J. Einarsson, B. Mehlig
We compute the angular dynamics of a neutrally buoyant nearly spherical particle immersed in an unsteady fluid. We assume that the particle is small, that its translational slip ve…
