A note on two boundary integral formulations for particle mobilities in Stokes flow
Sangtae Kim, H. Power · Journal of Fluid Mechanics · 1993
We show that a recent publication by Liron & Barta (1992) concerning a single-layer boundary integral equation for the tractions is mathematically equivalent to Karrila & Kim's (1989) Riesz method. In actual computational schemes, the second viewpoint is preferable since the integral operator has a spectral radius less than one and even large problems can be solved by fast iterative methods.
