Sedimentation of particles with very small inertia II: Derivation, Cauchy problem and hydrodynamic limit of the Vlasov-Stokes equation

RM Höfer, R Schubert - arXiv preprint arXiv:2311.01891, 2023 - arxiv.org
We consider the sedimentation of $ N $ spherical particles with identical radii $ R $ in a
Stokes flow in $\mathbb R^ 3$. The particles satisfy a no-slip boundary condition and are …
