Numerical Modeling of Stokesian Emulsions
Acknowledgments I am deeply grateful for the patience and understanding of my advisor, Dr. Greg Rodin and I appreciate his friendship. His generous support was essential for completing my studies and his guidance was essential for completing this dissertation. Many thanks to my advisor, Dr. Robert van de Geijn for his encouragement throughout my studies. He has enthusiasm in abundance and he is...
متن کاملPeriodic sedimentation in a Stokesian fluid.
We study the sedimentation of two identical but nonspherical particles sedimenting in a Stokesian fluid. Experiments and numerical simulations reveal periodic orbits wherein the bodies mutually induce an in-phase rotational motion accompanied by periodic modulations of sedimentation speed and separation distance. We term these "tumbling orbits" and find that they appear over a broad range of bo...
متن کاملAccelerated Stokesian dynamics: Brownian motion
A new Stokesian dynamics ~SD! algorithm for Brownian suspensions is presented. The implementation is based on the recently developed accelerated Stokesian dynamics ~ASD! simulation method @Sierou and Brady, J. Fluid Mech. 448, 115 ~2001!# for non-Brownian particles. As in ASD, the many-body long-range hydrodynamic interactions are computed using fast Fourier transforms, and the resistance matri...
متن کاملA thermodynamic efficiency for Stokesian swimming
Since free Stokesian swimming does no work external to fluid and body, the classical thermodynamic efficiency of this activity is zero. This paper introduces a potential thermodynamic efficiency by partially tethering the body so that work is done externally and instantaneously. We compare the resulting efficiency with other definitions utilized in Stokes flow, extend the instantaneous definiti...
متن کاملThe Stokesian hydrodynamics of flexing, stretching filaments
A central element of many fundamental problems in physics and biology lies in the interaction of a viscous fluid with slender, elastic filaments. Examples arise in the dynamics of biological fibers, the motility of microscopic organisms, and in phase transitions of liquid crystals. When considering the dynamics on the scale of a single filament, the surrounding fluid can often be assumed to be ...
