Abstract

An integral-equation approach is used to calculate the first-order effect of the proximity of a boundary on the Stokes resistance of a body. It is shown, that this approach gives both a simple derivation of the modified Stokes resistance and a method of investigating the accuracy of the final result. The problem of two settling particles is also considered briefly.
