The nature of fibre motion is much more complex than the motion of spherical particles. A complex model must be used for tracking of the fibre carried by the flow. The model must take into account the orientation of the fibre against the flow and solve the consequent rotation of the fibre. Description of such model can be found in this article. It is then used for simulation and analysis of fibre movement in a single planar bifurcation.
