Abstract: | The hydrodynamic interaction of two rigid spherical particles in a viscous incompressible fluid with the velocity at infinity
represented by a second-degree polynomial in the coordinates is considered. An analytical solution of the problem is suggested.
The forces and torques exerted on the particles and also the linear and angular particle velocities are calculated. The results
are compared with previous theoretical and experimental data.
