Resonances and Mixing in Confined Time-dependent Stokes Flows: The experiments, Numerics, and Analytics
Mixing in Stokes flows is notoriously difficult to achieve. With characteristic scales of the flows being too small for the turbulence to be present, and too large for the molecular diffusion to be significant, the chaotic advection presents almost the only mechanism that can lead to mixing. …
