Prof. Rama Govindarajan, ICTS-TIFR
Stokesian Sedimenters
Abstract:
A sphere falling under gravity through viscous fluid ultimately reaches a terminal velocity. What happens before it does so? How does a di-bilateral sediment? How do a line of sedimenting ellipsoids escape the Crowley instability? We will discuss these questions in my talk.
