Integrating the hydrodynamic stresss tensor and maxwell stress tensor over the particle surface

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I'm going to model 2D particles inside the microchannel filled with an incompressible and newtonian fluid with an electric field applied.
since i read so many paper using comsol to simulate that,those said that DEP force and hydrodynamic force can be obtain by integrating the maxwell stress tensor and hydrodynamic stress tensor over the particle surface, respectively.
in this case,i have no idea how to do that?
should i go to boundary integration coupling variable?if so, how to input the expression for that force?

furthermore,I also need to define the velocity, translation and rotation of the particle, in this case how can i do that?

Hello
I also want to know how to input the expression for that force (using maxwell stress tensor)
if you have some idea , you can have a discuss with me

Best regards!
