  1. The behavior of permeable, elastic particles sliding along a repulsive wall is examined computationally. It is found that particles will stick or slip depending on the interplay of elastohydrodynamic and repulsive forces, and the flow in the porous particle. Particles slip when either the elastohydrodynamic lift or repulsive forces are large and create a supporting lubricating film of fluid. However, for lower values of elastohydrodynamic lift or repulsive forces, the flow within the porous particle reduces the pressure in the thin film, resulting in the particles making contact and sticking to the surface. The criteria for the slip-stick transition is presented, which can be used to design systems to promote or suppress slip for such suspensions.

  2. Permeable particles are closer to the wall than impermeable particles and stick below a critical particle velocity.
