We simulate solid particles moving in the two-dimensional channel with the Poiseuille flow. We found that the collective chain excitation emerges with the increasing number of particles in the chain. We measured the spectrum of the chain oscillations varying the width of the channel and found the spectrum intensity became sharper for the more significant confinement ratio. The simulations were done using the Immersed boundary and Lattice Boltzmann methods. We compare our results with the experiments of the drop movement in the quasi-two-dimensional channel and with the simulations of other groups. The paper's main result is that the combination of the velocity gradient in Poiseuille flow and the proximity of the particle to the wall can induce the collective excitations in the chain of the particles moving in the two-dimensional channel.
