Inertio-viscous interactions between particles in oscillatory flow
Xiaokang Zhang, Bhargav Rallabandi
We study the interaction between a pair of particles suspended in a uniform oscillatory flow. The time-averaged behavior of particles under these conditions, driven by inertial and…

Time-averaged Dynamics of Compressible Particles in Oscillatory Gradient Flows
Xiaokang Zhang, Jake Minten, Bhargav Rallabandi
Acoustic fields effect steady transport of suspended particles by rectifying the inertia of primary oscillations. We develop a fully analytic theory that relates this steady partic…
