Abstract

Davis et al. (1976) have shown that if two solid spheres move together in an axisymmetric Stokes flow, then provided they are sufficiently close, a body of fluid becomes trapped between the spheres. Here it is shown how the small eddy motions induced in this trapped fluid are significantly disrupted when one sphere moves relative to the other.
