Asymptotic solutions of the Stokes equations are derived for both the translational and rotational motions of a sphere parallel to a plane wall bounding a semi-infinite, quiescent, viscous fluid in the limit where the gap width tends to zero. In a numerical sense these solutions are shown to agree asymptotically with the ‘exact’ bipolar co-ordinate solutions of O'Neill[1] and Deanand O'Neill[2] after correcting the numerical computations of the latter. The results are applied to the motion of a sphere ‘rolling’ down an inclined plane under the influence of gravity. It is demonstrated that the sphere cannot be in physical contact with the wall, and that it ‘slips’ as it rolls down the wall. Failure of the theory to agree with the experimental data of Carty[3] is tentatively attributed to cavitation.
