We show that the collective effect of $N$ rigid bodies $(\mathcal{S}_{n,N})_{n=1}^N$ of diameters $(r_{n,N})_{n=1}^N$ immersed in an incompressible non--Newtonian fluid is negligible in the asymptotic limit $N \to \infty$ as long as their…
We analyze the system of equations describing the flow of a dilute particle system coupled with an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid in a bounded domain. In this setting, both PDEs are connected via a drag force, or the friction force. We…
