Stokes flow

Stokes flow (named after George Gabriel Stokes), also named creeping flow or creeping motion, is a type of fluid flow where advective inertial forces are small compared with viscous forces. The Reynolds number is low, i.e. R e ≪ 1 {\displaystyle \mathrm {Re} \ll 1} . This is a typical situation in flows where the fluid velocities are very slow, the…
