Abstract
En 中文
The featured article 'Break-up of a falling drop containing dispersed particles' (Nitsche and Batchelor, J. Fluid Mech., 1997, vol. 340, pp. 161-175) is G. K. Batchelor's last published paper with his former postdoctoral associate J. M. Nitsche. The objective of the study was to investigate the randomness of the velocities of interacting rigid particles falling under gravity through a viscous fluid at a small Reynolds number and its consequence for the breakup of a falling cloud of particles. The study focused on a quintessential problem of the collective dynamics of interacting particles and has been an inspiration for subsequent work.
