Abstract
The simultaneous effects of a cylinder wall and of a neighboring sphere on the frictional force and torque experienced by a sphere is theoretically calculated, at small Reynolds numbers, for the case when two spheres symmetrically placed about the axis of a circular cylinder rotate slowly with equal angular speeds, in opposite directions, about axes perpendicular to their line of centers. Numerical values are provided which enable the frictional force and torque on the reference sphere to be computed from the fundamental geometrical parameters of the system. © 1980 Birkhäuser Verlag.
