Justification of lubrication approximation: An application to fluid/solid interactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the stationary Stokes problem in a three-dimensional fluid domain F with non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We assume that this fluid domain is the complement of a bounded obstacle B in a bounded or an exterior smooth container Ω. We compute sharp asymptotics of the solution to the Stokes problem when the distance between the obstacle and the container boundary is small.

Microelastohydrodynamics of Swimming Organisms near Solid Boundaries in Complex Fluids
Microorganisms such as sperm routinely swim close to solid boundaries and within nonNewtonian fluids. In this paper, we exploit the lubrication approximation to model the motion of a flexible sheet near a rigid wall and immersed in a complex fluid. This allows us to specify an internally generated force density on the sheet and allow its shape and velocity to be determined by the interplay betw...
متن کاملLubrication approximation for microparticles moving along parallel walls.
Lubrication expressions for the friction coefficients of a spherical particle moving in a fluid between and along two parallel solid walls are explicitly evaluated in the low-Reynolds-number regime. They are used to determine lubrication expression for the particle free motion under an ambient Poiseuille flow. The range of validity and the accuracy of the lubrication approximation are determine...
متن کاملLattice-Boltzmann simulation of gravitational settling and rebound of a finite-size particle in a viscous fluid
A fundamental problem in wall-bounded particle-laden flows is how to treat the interaction of a solid particle suspended in a viscous fluid with a rigid wall. As a first step towards understanding this complex multiscale process, we study the near-field interaction and rebound of a sedimenting particle from a horizontal solid surface. A computational approach based on the Multiple-Relaxation Ti...
متن کاملBiorthogonal wavelet-based full-approximation schemes for the numerical solution of elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication problems
Biorthogonal wavelet-based full-approximation schemes are introduced in this paper for the numerical solution of elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication line and point contact problems. The proposed methods give higher accuracy in terms of better convergence with low computational time, which have been demonstrated through the illustrative problems.
متن کاملModeling thermodynamic properties of electrolytes: Inclusion of the mean spherical approximation (MSA) in the simplified SAFT equation of state
In this work, an equation of state has been utilized for thermodynamic modeling of aqueous electrolyte solutions. The proposed equation of state is a combination of simplified statistical associating fluid theory (SAFT) equation of state (similar to simplified PC-SAFT) to describe the effect of short-range interactions and mean spherical approximation (MSA) term to describe the effect of long-r...
