Chaotic drag of particles in a laminar flow

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

Dispersion of clouds of particles in a fluid can take place also in laminar flows with nonchaotic Lagrangian trajectories. This is shown to occur in a simple model for the one-dimensional motions of spherical particles in a periodic standing wave, with Stokes law for the drag force.
