Part of the book series: The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and Its Applications ((IMA,volume 9))

Abstract

We study the propagation of momentum through viscous fluid in a domain containing a large number of randomly distributed small obstacles. The obstacles are assumed to be fixed, and the velocity is governed by Stokes equations. Our motivations are:

  1. (i)

    Analyse hydrodynamic interactions in random configurations.

  2. (ii)

    Develope models for porous media.
