Abstract
We consider the evolution of a small rigid body in an incompressible viscous fluid filling the whole space. The motion of the fluid is modelled by the Navier-Stokes equations, whereas the motion of the rigid body is described by the conservation law of linear and angular momentum. Under the assumption that the diameter of the rigid body tends to zero and that the density of the rigid body goes to infinity, we prove that the solution of the fluid-rigid body system converges to a solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in the full space without rigid body.
