Effect of retarded friction and added mass on the swimming speed of a vibrating two-sphere

B. U. Felderhof

A theoretical expression is derived for the mechanical contribution to the mean swimming speed of a vibrating two-sphere immersed in a viscous incompressible fluid. The two spheres…

Transition in steady streaming and pumping caused by a sphere oscillating in a viscous incompressible fluid

B. U. Felderhof

The steady streaming flow pattern caused by a no-slip sphere oscillating in an unbounded viscous incompressible fluid is calculated exactly to second order in the amplitude. The pa…

Optimizing the Mean Swimming Velocity of a Model Two-sphere Swimmer

B. U. Felderhof

The swimming of a two-sphere system oscillating in a viscous fluidis studied on the basis of simplified equations of motion which take account of both friction and inertial effects…

Collinear velocity relaxation of two spheres in a viscous incompressible fluid

B. U. Felderhof

Collinear velocity relaxation of two spheres immersed in a viscous incompressible fluid is studied on the basis of an approximate expression for the retarded hydrodynamic interacti…

Retarded hydrodynamic interaction between two spheres immersed in a viscous incompressible fluid

B. U. Felderhof

Retarded or frequency-dependent hydrodynamic interactions are relevant for velocity relaxation of colloidal particles immersed in a fluid, sufficiently close that their flow patter…

Swimming of a uniform deformable sphere in a viscous incompressible fluid with inertia

B. U. Felderhof, R. B. Jones

The swimming of a deformable uniform sphere is studied in second order perturbation theory in the amplitude of the stroke. The effect of the first order reaction force on the first…
