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…
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…
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…
We present results from an experiment designed to better understand the mechanism by which ocean currents and winds control flotsam drift. The experiment consisted in deploying in the Florida Current and subsequently satellite tracking…
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…
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…
The dynamics of inertial particles in fluid flows have been the focus of extensive research due to their relevance in a wide range of industrial and environmental processes. Earlier studies have examined the dynamics of aerosols and bubbles…
We study the dynamics of inertial particles in two dimensional incompressible flows. The Maxey-Riley equation describing the motion of inertial particles is used to construct a four dimensional dissipative bailout embedding map. This map…
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…
Active Brownian motion commonly assumes spherical overdamped particles. However, self-propelled particles are often neither symmetric nor overdamped yet underlie random fluctuations from their surroundings. Active Brownian motion has…
A new theory for the dynamics of the magnetic particles and their magnetic moments in ferrofluids is developed. Based on a generalized Lagrangian formulation for the equations of motion of the colloidal particle, we introduce its…
The Maxey--Riley equation describes the motion of an inertial (i.e., finite-size) spherical particle in an ambient fluid flow. The equation is a second-order, implicit integro-differential equation with a singular kernel, and with a forcing…
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…
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…
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…
Active particles which are self-propelled by converting energy into mechanical motion represent an expanding research realm in physics and chemistry. For micron-sized particles moving in a liquid ("microswimmers"), most of the basic…
While active matter physics has traditionally focused on particles with overdamped dynamics, recent years have seen an increase of experimental and theoretical work on active systems with inertia. This also leads to an increased need for…
The dynamics of neutrally buoyant particles transported by a turbulent flow is investigated for spherical particles with radii of the order of the Kolmogorov dissipative scale or larger. The pseudo-penalisation spectral method that has been…
In inertial microfluidics lift forces cause a particle to migrate across streamlines to specific positions in the cross section of a microchannel. We control the rotational motion of a particle and demonstrate that this allows to manipulate…
We analyze the evolution of the distribution, both in the phase space and in the physical space, of inertial particles released by a spatially-localized (punctual) source and advected by an incompressible flow. The difference in mass…
