An oscillating motion of a red blood cell and a neutrally buoyant particle in Poiseuille flow in a narrow channel
Lingling Shi, Yao Yu, Tsorng-Whay Pan +1
Two motions of oscillation and vacillating breathing (swing) of a red blood cell have been observed in bounded Poiseuille flows (Phys. Rev. E 85, 16307 (2012)). To understand such…

A numerical study of the motion of a neutrally buoyant cylinder in two dimensional shear flow
Tsorng-Whay Pan, Shih-Lin Huang, Shih-Di Chen +2
In this paper, we investigate the motion of a neutrally buoyant cylinder of circular or elliptic shape in two dimensional shear flow of a Newtonian fluid by direct numerical simula…
