HYDRODYNAMIC INTERACTION AND DEFORMATION OF DROPS
S. I. Martynov

UDC 532.529:541.182

Hydrodynamic interaction of drops in a linear flow 
of a viscous incompressible fluid is considered. An analytical solution 
is suggested for the problem of two and three interacting drops. The 
forces acting on the drops and the relative velocities of the latter 
are calculated. The shape of the surface for two interacting drops 
is found. Comparison with the earlier obtained results is made.
