Analytical solutions for two-dimensional singly periodic Stokes flow singularity arrays near walls

Complex Variables 2019-04-25 v1 Numerical Analysis

Abstract

New analytical representations of the Stokes flows due to periodic arrays of point singularities in a two-dimensional no-slip channel and in the half-plane near a no-slip wall are derived. The analysis makes use of a conformal mapping from a concentric annulus (or a disc) to a rectangle and a complex variable formulation of Stokes flow to derive the solutions. The form of the solutions is amenable to fast and accurate numerical computation without the need for Ewald summation or other fast summation techniques.
