Abstract: | The effect of harmonic forces on Brownian motion in linear shear flow is investigated including a short and intermediate time analysis. A diffusion regime exists for long times if the harmonic forces restrict the motion only in one direction. A series expansion for the effective longitudinal diffusion coefficient is derived for a model of nonlinear uniaxial flows. |
