Abstract

We consider the Stokes equations on a bounded perforated domaincompleted with non-zero constant boundary conditions on the holes. We investigate configurations forwhich the holes are identical spheres and their number N goes to infinity while their radius1/N tends to zero. We prove that, under the assumption that there is no concentrationin the distribution of holes, the solution is well approximated asymptotically by solving aStokes-Brinkman problem.
