Abstract
This paper investigates the axisymmetric sedimentation of a small slowly rotating and translating particle through a fluid-filled circular pore of finite length which communicates with two half-space chambers of fluid. In the quasi-steady Stokes approximation the particle is modelled by either a rotlet or Stokeslet, and potential-theoretic methods are used to reduce each problem to the solution of coupled infinite systems of linear equations. The numerical solutions of these sets of equations are used to compute approximations to the resistive torque and drag experienced by the particle.
