Three-sphere low-Reynolds-number swimmer near a wall.
We study the influence of a wall on the dynamics of a low-Reynolds-number three-sphere swimmer. A far swimmer whose arm makes an angle theta with the horizon experiences the wall presence as an angle-dependent quadrupole force proportional to (a/L)(2)(L/z)(2)cos theta, where a, L, and z are the radius of spheres, the arm length, and the swimmer distance to the wall, respectively. The wall-induc...
متن کاملFlow around a Suddenly Accelerated Rotating Plate at Low Reynolds Number
The study explores the evolution of flow field and forces of a low-aspect-ratio flat plate undergoing an accelerated rotating surge motion from rest. The measurements were performed in a water tank at Reynolds numbers of 20,000, based on the chord length and terminal velocity at 75% span. A tomographic Particle Image Velocimetry (Tomographic-PIV) technique was used in order to capture three-dim...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Analysis of Flow Past a Solid-Sphere at Low Reynolds Numbers with the Aid of Body Fitted Coordinates
In this paper, the flow-field of an incompressible viscous flow past a solid-sphere at low Reynolds numbers (up to 270) is investigated numerically. In order to extend the capabilities of the finite volume method, the boundary (body) fitted coordinates (BFC) method is used. Transformation of the partial differential equations to algebraic relations is based on the finite-volume method with coll...

متن کاملAsymptotics beyond All Orders for a Low Reynolds Number Flow
The solution for slow incompressible ow past a circular cylinder involves terms in powers of 1= log , times powers of 1= log , etc., where is the Reynolds number. Previously we showed how to determine the sum of all terms in powers of 1= log. Now we show how to go beyond all those terms to nd the sum of all terms containing times a power of 1= log. The rst sum gives the drag coeecient and repre...
