Abstract
The paper reports a numerical method for the solution of Stokes flows past a system of particles of arbitrary shape near a planar surface on which the velocity vector is zero. The method is an application of the Completed Double Layer Boundary Integral Method (CDL-BIEM) by Kim and Karrila [1]. It uses an iterative solver and therefore can handle a large number of particles with complex geometries. Particles' trajectories for a few typical problems are presented to illustrate the feasibility of the method.
