Simulating flexible fiber suspensions using a scalable immersed boundary algorithm
We present an approach for numerically simulating the dynamics of flexible fibers in a threedimensional shear flow using a scalable immersed boundary (IB) algorithm based on Guermond and Minev’s pseudocompressible fluid solver. The fibers are treated as one-dimensional Kirchhoff rods that resist stretching, bending, and twisting, within the generalized IB framework. We perform a careful numeric...
متن کاملSimulations of Flexible Fiber Suspensions
Understanding the behavior of flexible fiber suspensions is challenging because of the many variables that affect macroscopic properties (such as fiber length, concentration, shape, flexibility, interactions, etc.), and the difficulty of systematically varying the system variables in experimental studies. In this report, we show how fiber-level simulations can be used to systematically investig...

متن کاملModelling of the Dynamics of an immersed body in a microchannel with stenosis using the immersed boundary method
In the present study, the combination of lattice Boltzmann and immersed boundary methods is used to simulate the motion and deformation of a flexible body. Deformation of the body is studied in microchannel with stenosis and the effect of the flexibility changes on its deformation is investigated. The obtained results in the present manuscript show that by increasing the elasticity modulus, the...
متن کاملSimulating the Fluid Dynamics of Natural and Prosthetic Heart Valves Using the Immersed Boundary Method
The immersed boundary method is both a general mathematical framework and a particular numerical approach to problems of fluid-structure interaction. In the present work, we describe the application of the immersed boundary method to the simulation of the fluid dynamics of heart valves, including a model of a natural aortic valve and a model of a chorded prosthetic mitral valve. Each valve is m...
