These identities stand for definitions of the translational (resp. angular) velocity i
(resp. ! i )of
B i . In the two-dimensional case, there holds ! i 2 R and
! i x D ! i x ? ;
8 x 2 R 2 ;
with ? denoting the rotation with angle =2. In the three-dimensional case ! i 2 R 3
and stands for the usual vector product. To include this dimensional phenomenon,
we shall write ! i
R d where d
D 3 for d D 3 and d
2
D 1 for d D 2.
Finally, the body unknowns are .
B i .t/; i ;! i / i D 1;:::;n . We note that, given t 7! B i .t/,
we might compute . i ;! i / through ( 4.2 )and( 4.6 )-( 4.7 ). Conversely, given our
convention ( 4.4 ), the identities ( 4.6 )-( 4.7 ) represent differential equations which
enable to compute G i and
Q i in terms of i and ! i . Eventually, one might restrict
the set of body unknowns either to . i ;! i / i D 1;:::;n or to .
B i .t// i D 1;:::;n .
As for the fluid, we denote u f
D . u f;1 ;:::; u f;d / the velocity-field and p f the
pressure of

space) fluid domain

For simplicity, we assume that the fluid has constant density f D 1. We denote
its kinematic viscosity. We deal with newtonian fluids, so that the Cauchy stress
tensor in the fluid
