The role of inertia for the rotation of a nearly spherical particle in a general linear flow
F. Candelier, J. Einarsson, F. Lundell +2
We analyse the angular dynamics of a neutrally buoyant nearly spherical particle immersed in a steady general linear flow. The hydrodynamic torque acting on the particle is obtaine…
Effect of weak fluid inertia upon Jeffery orbits
J. Einarsson, F. Candelier, F. Lundell +2
We consider the rotation of small neutrally buoyant axisymmetric particles in a viscous steady shear flow. When inertial effects are negligible the problem exhibits infinitely many…
Rotation of a spheroid in a simple shear at small Reynolds number
J. Einarsson, F. Candelier, F. Lundell +2
We derive an effective equation of motion for the orientational dynamics of a neutrally buoyant spheroid suspended in a simple shear flow, valid for arbitrary particle aspect ratio…
Tumbling of asymmetric microrods in a microchannel flow
J. Einarsson, B. M. Mihiretie, A. Laas +4
We describe results of measurements of the orientational motion of glass microrods in a microchannel flow, following the orientational motion of particles with different shapes. We…
Critical Stokes number for the capture of inertial particles by recirculation cells in 2D quasi-steady flows
Romuald Verjus, Jean-Régis Angilella
Inertial particles are often observed to be trapped, temporarily or permanently, by recirculation cells which are ubiquitous in natural or industrial flows. In the limit of small p…
