We investigate theoretically on the basis of the steady Stokes equations for a viscous incompressible fluid the flow induced by a Stokeslet located on the centre axis of two coaxially positioned rigid disks. The Stokeslet is directed along the centre axis. No-slip boundary conditions are assumed to hold at the surfaces of the disks. We perform the calculation of the associated Greens function in large parts analytically, reducing the spatial evaluation of the flow field to one-dimensional integrations amenable to numerical treatment. To this end, we formulate the solution of the hydrodynamic problem for the viscous flow surrounding the two disks as a mixed-boundary-value problem, which we then reduce into a system of four dual integral equations. We show the existence of viscous toroidal eddies arising in the fluid domain bounded by the two disks, manifested in the plane containing the centre axis through adjacent counterrotating eddies. Additionally, we probe the effect of the confining disks on the slow dynamics of a point-like particle by evaluating the hydrodynamic mobility function associated with axial motion. Thereupon, we assess the appropriateness of the commonly-employed superposition approximation and discuss its validity and applicability as a function of the geometrical properties of the system. Additionally, we complement our semi-analytical approach by finite-element computer simulations, which reveals a good agreement. Our results may find applications in guiding the design of microparticle-based sensing devices and electrokinetic transport in small scale capacitors.

Geometric confinements play an important role in many physical and biological processes and significantly affect the rheology and behavior of colloidal suspensions at low Reynolds numbers. On the basis of the linear Stokes equations, we investigate t
heoretically and computationally the viscous azimuthal flow induced by the slow rotation of a small spherical particle located in the vicinity of a rigid no-slip disk or inside a gap between two coaxially positioned rigid no-slip disks of the same radius. We formulate the solution of the hydrodynamic problem as a mixed-boundary-value problem in the whole fluid domain, which we subsequently transform into a system of dual integral equations. Near a stationary disk, we show that the resulting integral equation can be reduced into an elementary Abel integral equation that admits a unique analytical solution. Between two coaxially positioned stationary disks, we demonstrate that the flow problem can be transformed into a system of two Fredholm integral equations of the first kind. The latter are solved by means of numerical approaches. Using our solution, we further investigate the effect of the disks on the slow rotational motion of a colloidal particle and provide expressions of the hydrodynamic mobility as a function of the system geometry. We compare our results with corresponding finite-element simulations and observe very good agreement.
Chaotic mixing in a closed vessel is studied experimentally and numerically in different 2-D flow configurations. For a purely hyperbolic phase space, it is well-known that concentration fluctuations converge to an eigenmode of the advection-diffusio
n operator and decay exponentially with time. We illustrate how the unstable manifold of hyperbolic periodic points dominates the resulting persistent pattern. We show for different physical viscous flows that, in the case of a fully chaotic Poincare section, parabolic periodic points at the walls lead to slower (algebraic) decay. A persistent pattern, the backbone of which is the unstable manifold of parabolic points, can be observed. However, slow stretching at the wall forbids the rapid propagation of stretched filaments throughout the whole domain, and hence delays the formation of an eigenmode until it is no longer experimentally observable. Inspired by the bakers map, we introduce a 1-D model with a parabolic point that gives a good account of the slow decay observed in experiments. We derive a universal decay law for such systems parametrized by the rate at which a particle approaches the no-slip wall.
A submerged finite cylinder moving under its own weight along a soft incline lifts off and slides at a steady velocity while also spinning. Here, we experimentally quantify the steady spinning of the cylinder and show theoretically that it is due to
a combination of an elastohydrodynamic torque generated by flow in the variable gap, and the viscous friction on the edges of the finite-length cylinder. The relative influence of the latter depends on the aspect ratio of the cylinder as well as the deformability of the substrate, which we express in term of a single scaled compliance parameter. By varying this compliance parameter, we show that our experimental results are consistent with a transition from an edge-effect dominated regime for short cylinders to a gap-dominated elastohydrodynamic regime when the cylinder is very long.
We study the flow of membranal fluid through a ring of immobile particles mimicking, for example, a fence around a membrane corral. We obtain a simple closed-form expression for the permeability coefficient of the ring as a function of the particles
line fraction. The analytical results agree with those of numerical calculations and are found to be robust against changes in particle number and corral shape. From the permeability results we infer the collective diffusion coefficient of lipids through the ring and discuss possible implications for collective lipid transport in a crowded membrane.
Previous studies of precariously balanced objects in seismically active regions provide important information for aseismatic engineering and theoretical seismology. They are almost founded on an oversimplified assumption: any 3-dimensional (3D) actua
l object with special symmetry could be regarded as a 2D finite object in light of the corresponding symmetry. To gain an actual evolution of precariously balanced objects subjected to various levels of ground accelerations, a 3D investigation should be performed. In virtue of some reasonable works from a number of mechanicians, we derive three resultant second-order ordinary differential equations determine the evolution of 3D responses. The new dynamic analysis is following the 3D rotation of a rigid body around a fixed point. A computer program for numerical solution of these equations is also developed to simulate the rocking and rolling response of axisymmetric objects to various levels of ground accelerations. It is shown that the 2D and 3D estimates on the minimum overturning acceleration of a cylinder under the same sets of half- and full-sine-wave pulses are almost consistent except at several frequency bonds. However, we find that the 2D and 3D responses using the actual seismic excitation have distinct differences, especially to north-south (NS) and up-down (UD) components. In this work the chosen seismic wave is the El Centro recording of the 18 May 1940 Imperial Valley Earthquake. The 3D outcome does not seem to support the 2D previous result that the vertical component of the ground acceleration is less important than the horizontal ones. We conclude that the 2D dynamic modeling is not always reliable.
