Numerical simulation on the effects of the viscosity contrast of a soft particle at the transition between tank-treading and tumbling motions

There are mainly two types of motion for a soft particle moving in a fluid: tank-treading and tumbling motions. This transition from one mode to the other is very important for the rheological characteristics of the suspension, due to the significant changes in its macroscopic viscosity. In this stu...
