Description We propose to study the effects of particle and fluid inertia in a uniform time dependent flow field at low Reynolds numbers under the action of a periodic force field. We plan to modify the formulation available in the literature for our problems and to examine the possibility of chaos in the dynamics of such particles. We also propose to calculate the rehology of a dilute suspension of a number of such particles under the action of a periodic force field. This system could be one of the simplest physically realizable systems which can exhibit chaos at the level of the individual particle and whose rheological properties which represent in some sense spatial averages over the positions of all the particles can exhibit chaotic behaviour. We believe that a study of this system is important since it can represent an idealized model of many systems in nature which are forced periodically at both the micro and macrolevels.
