The solutions are obtained as conformal mappings from a multiply connected circular domain in an auxiliary complex plane to the flow region in a period cell. The conformal mappings are constructed using the generalized Schwarz-Christoffel formula for multiply connected polygonal domains in terms of products of Schottky-Klein prime functions. It is shown that previous solutions for multiple steady bubbles in a Hele-Shaw cell are all particular cases of the solutions described herein. Examples of specific bubble configurations are discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-04-08T21:45:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "exact solutions", "hele-shaw channel", "periodic assembly", "conformal mappings", "auxiliary complex plane" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1404.2312V" } } }
