In their seminal 1983 paper, M. Maxey and J. Riley introduced an equation for the motion of a sphere through a fluid. Since this equation features the Basset history integral, the popularity of this equation has broadened the use of a…
Buoyant, finite-size or inertial particle motion is fundamentally unlike neutrally buoyant, infinitesimally small or Lagrangian particle motion. The de-jure fluid mechanics framework for the description of inertial particle dynamics is…
Oscillatory flows have become an indispensable tool in microfluidics, inducing inertial effects for displacing and manipulating fluid-borne objects in a reliable, controllable, and label-free fashion. However, the quantitative description…
A framework for the study of surface ocean inertial particle motion is built from the Maxey--Riley set. A new set is obtained by vertically averaging each term of the original set, adapted to account for Earth's rotation effects, across the…
The inertial response of a particle to turbulent flows is a problem of relevance to a wide range of environmental and engineering problems. The equation most often used to describe the force balance is the Maxey-Riley equation, which…
Recent experimental and numerical observations have shown the significance of the Basset--Boussinesq memory term on the dynamics of small spherical rigid particles (or inertial particles) suspended in an ambient fluid flow. These…
Inertial particles (i.e. with mass and of finite size) immersed in a fluid in motion are unable to adapt their velocities to the carrying flow and thus they have been the subject of much interest in fluid mechanics. In this paper we…
The purpose of this note is to present an enhancement to a Maxey-Riley theory proposed in recent years for the dynamics of inertial particles on the ocean surface. This model upgrade removes constraints on the reserve buoyancy, defined as…
In this article we consider the inhomogeneous incompressible Euler equations describing two fluids with different constant densities under the influence of gravity as a differential inclusion. By considering the relaxation of the…
We consider here the stationary Micropolar fluid equations which are a particular generalization of the usual Navier-Stokes system where the microrotations of the fluid particles must be taken into account. We thus obtain two coupled…
Describing effects of small but finite inertia on suspended particles is a fundamental fluid dynamical problem that has never been solved in full generality. Modern microfluidics has turned this academic problem into a practical challenge…
We consider the rotation of small neutrally buoyant axisymmetric particles in a viscous steady shear flow. When inertial effects are negligible the problem exhibits infinitely many periodic solutions, the "Jeffery orbits". We compute how…
Inertial particles in stably stratified flows play a fundamental role in geophysics, from the dynamics of nutrients in the ocean to the dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere. We consider the Maxey-Riley equation for small neutrally…
The Maxey-Riley equation has been extensively used by the fluid dynamics community to study the dynamics of small inertial particles in fluid flow. However, most often, the Basset history force in this equation is neglected. Including the…
In this paper we study the equations governing the unsteady motion of an incompressible homogeneous generalized second grade fluid subject to periodic boundary conditions. We establish the existence of global-in-time strong solutions for…
In this work we study the coupled system of partial and ordinary differential equations describing the interaction between a compressible isentropic viscous fluid and a rigid body moving freely inside the fluid. In particular the position…
Surface transport of inertial particles is investigated by means of the perturbative approach, introduced by Maxey (J. Fluid Mech. 174, 441 (1987)), which is valid in the case the deflections induced on the particle trajectories by the…
The Maxey-Riley-Gatignol equations (MRGE) describe the motion of a finite-sized, spherical particle in a fluid. Because of wake effects, the force acting on a particle depends on its past trajectory. This is modelled by an integral term in…
The Maxey-Riley-Gatignol equation for the flow around a sphere at low particle Reynolds number tells us that the fluid-particle interaction force decomposes into a contribution from the local flow disturbance caused by the particle's…
The Rayleigh equation, which is the linearized Euler equations near a shear flow in vorticity formulation, is a key ingredient in the study of the long time behavior of solutions of linearized Euler equations, in the study of the linear…
