Starting from microscopic $N$ particle systems, we study the derivation of Doi type models for suspensions of non-spherical particles in Stokes flows. While Doi models accurately describe the effective evolution of the spatial particle…
This review is devoted to the large-scale rheology of suspensions of rigid particles in Stokes fluid. After describing recent results on the definition of the effective viscosity of such systems in the framework of homogenization theory, we…
We study the multiscale viscoelastic Doi model for suspensions of Brownian rigid rod-like particles, as well as its generalization by Saintillan and Shelley for self-propelled particles. We consider the regime of a small Weissenberg number,…
We consider a suspension of spherical inertialess particles in a Stokes flow on the torus $\mathbb T^3$. The particles perturb a linear extensional flow due to their rigidity constraint. Due to the singular nature of this perturbation, no…
This paper seeks to carry out the rigorous homogenization of a particulate flow consisting of a non-dilute suspension of a viscous Newtonian fluid with magnetizable particles. The fluid is assumed to be described by the Stokes flow, while…
We consider a microscopic model of $n$ identical axis-symmetric rigid Brownian particles suspended in a Stokes flow. We rigorously derive in the homogenization limit of many small particles a classical formula for the viscoelastic stress…
Shear flow of dense, non-Brownian suspensions is simulated using the discrete element method, taking particle contact and hydrodynamic lubrication into account. The resulting flow regimes are mapped in the parametric space of solid volume…
We consider a suspension of non-interacting flat elastic particles in a Newtonian fluid. We model a flat shape as three beads, carried along by the flow according to Stokes' law, and connected by nonlinear springs, chosen such that the…
We consider a suspension of active rigid particles (swimmers) in a steady Stokes flow, where particles are distributed according to a stationary ergodic random process, and we study its homogenization in the macroscopic limit. A key point…
We provide a rigorous derivation of an effective rheology for dilute viscous suspensions of self-propelled particles. We derive at the limit an effective Stokes system with two additional terms. The first term corresponds to an effective…
We derive macroscopic dynamics for self-propelled particles in a fluid. The starting point is a coupled Vicsek-Stokes system. The Vicsek model describes self-propelled agents interacting through alignment. It provides a phenomenological…
Using the volume averaging technique of Jackson (1997), we derive a set of two-fluid equations that describe the dynamics of a mono-disperse non-Brownian colloidal suspension in the semi-dilute regime. The equations are tensorial and can be…
Turbulent suspensions of heavy particles in incompressible flows have gained much attention in recent years. A large amount of work focused on the impact that the inertia and the dissipative dynamics of the particles have on their dynamical…
Using a simple model of self-propelled particle, the effective shear viscosity of a dilute, spatially homogeneous suspension of active particles is studied. We use formulation of non-linear Fokker-Planck equation to drive a kinetic…
In this work, we investigate the dynamics of the number density fluctuations of a dilute suspension of active particles in a linear viscoelastic fluid. We propose a model for the frequency-dependent diffusion coefficient of the active…
We propose an improved effective-medium theory to obtain the concentration dependence of the viscosity of particle suspensions at arbitrary volume fractions. Our methodology can be applied, in principle, to any particle shape as long as the…
The microstructure and rheological properties of suspensions of neutrally buoyant hard spherical particles in Newtonian fluid under conditions of finite inertia are studied using the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM), which is based on a…
We develop a multiscale approach to describe the behavior of a suspension of solid magnetizable particles in a viscous non-conducting fluid in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field. By upscaling the quasi-static Maxwell…
We describe a computational framework for simulating suspensions of rigid particles in Newtonian Stokes flow. One central building block is a collision-resolution algorithm that overcomes the numerical constraints arising from particle…
With a detail microscopic model for a self-propelled swimmer, we derive the rheological properties of a dilute suspension of such particles at small Peclet numbers. It is shown that, in addition to the Einstein's like contribution to the…
