The effects of small vibrations on the motion of a solid particle suspended in a fluid cell were investigated theoretically and experimentally. An inviscid model was developed to predict the amplitude of a solid particle suspended by a thin wire in the fluid cell which was vibrated horizontally. Both the model and experimental data showed that the particle amplitude is linearly proportional to the cell amplitude, and the existence of a resonance frequency. At higher cell vibration frequencies well above the resonance frequency, both the model and experiments showed that the particle amplitude becomes constant and independent of the wire length.
