Immersed finite element method and its applications to biological systems.

This paper summarizes the newly developed immersed finite element method (IFEM) and its applications to the modeling of biological systems. This work was inspired by the pioneering work of Professor T.J.R. Hughes in solving fluid-structure interaction problems. In IFEM, a Lagrangian solid mesh moves on top of a background Eulerian fluid mesh which spans the entire computational domain. Hence, m...

An unstructured immersed finite element method for nonlinear solid mechanics

We present an immersed finite element technique for boundary-value and interface problems from nonlinear solid mechanics. Its key features are the implicit representation of domain boundaries and interfaces, the use of Nitsche’s method for the incorporation of boundary conditions, accurate numerical integration based on marching tetrahedrons and cut-element stabilisation by means of extrapolati...

Optimal convergence analysis of an immersed interface finite element method

We analyze an immersed interface finite element method based on linear polynomials on noninterface triangular elements and piecewise linear polynomials on interface triangular elements. The flux jump condition is weakly enforced on the smooth interface. Optimal error estimates are derived in the broken H1-norm and L2-norm.

An Immersed Finite Element Method for Elasticity Equations with Interfaces

Abstract. The immersed finite element method based on a uniform Cartesian mesh has been developed for the linear elasticity equations with discontinuous coefficients across an interface in this paper. The interface does not have to be aligned with the mesh. The main idea is to modify the basis function over those triangles in which the interface cuts through so that the natural interface condit...

Hybrid finite difference/finite element immersed boundary method

The immersed boundary method is an approach to fluid-structure interaction that uses a Lagrangian description of the structural deformations, stresses, and forces along with an Eulerian description of the momentum, viscosity, and incompressibility of the fluid-structure system. The original immersed boundary methods described immersed elastic structures using systems of flexible fibers, and eve...
