Summary
Stokes Flow
, also known as
Creeping Flow
, describes the behavior of a fluid moving at very low
Reynolds numbers
where
Inertial Forces
are negligible compared to
Viscous Forces
. This type of flow is characterized by its linearity and
Time Reversibility
, making it vital in the study of
Microscale fluid systems
and
Biological Processes
involving
Small-scale entities
.
