ResumoThe force on a small sphere translating relative to a slow viscous flow is found to O(Re½) for two different fluid flows far from the sphere, namely pure rotation and pure shear. For pure rotation, the O(Re½) correction to the Stokes drag consists of an increase in the drag. For pure shear, the O(Re½) force contains a component perpendicular to the Stokes drag force.
