Computations of the drag coefficients for low-Reynolds-number flow past rings

TL;DR: In this paper, the variation in the drag coefficient for low-Reynolds-number flow past rings orientated normal to the direction of flow is investigated numerically, where an aspect ratio parameter is used for a ring, which describes at its limits a sphere and a circular cylinder.
