Abstract

The sedimentation of a spherical particle in an elastoviscoplastic fluid in proximity of a flat wall is investigated by direct numerical simulations. The governing equations under inertialess conditions are solved by the finite element method with an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation to manage the particle motion. The fluid is modeled with the Giesekus constitutive equation modified as proposed by Saramito (2007).
