A Fast Immersed Boundary Fourier Pseudo-spectral Method for Simulation of the Incompressible Flows
Abstract The present paper is devoted to implementation of the immersed boundary technique into the Fourier pseudo-spectral solution of the vorticity-velocity formulation of the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The immersed boundary conditions are implemented via direct modification of the convection and diffusion terms, and therefore, in contrast to some other similar ...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of the Immersed Boundary Method for Cell-Based Simulation
Mathematical modelling provides a useful framework within which to investigate the organization of biological tissues. With advances in experimental biology leading to increasingly detailed descriptions of cellular behavior, models that consider cells as individual objects are becoming a common tool to study how processes at the single-cell level affect collective dynamics and determine tissue ...
متن کاملSimulation of Osmotic Swelling by the Stochastic Immersed Boundary Method
We develop computational methods for the simulation of osmotic swelling phenomenarelevant to microscopic vesicles containing transformable solute molecules. We introduce StochasticImmersed Boundary Methods (SIBM) that can capture osmotically driven fluid transport throughsemi-permeable elastic membranes subject to thermal fluctuations. We also develop numerical meth-ods to handl...
متن کامل2-D Parachute Simulation by the Immersed Boundary Method
Parachute aerodynamics involves an interaction between the flexible, elastic, porous parachute canopy and the high speed airflow (relative to the parachute) through which the parachute falls. Computer simulation of parachute dynamics typically simplify the problem in various ways, e.g. by considering the parachute as a rigid bluff body. Here, we avoid such simplification by using the immersed b...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of moving contact lines with surfactant by immersed boundary method
In this paper, we present an immersed boundary method for simulating moving contact lines with surfactant. The governing equations are the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with the usual mixture of Eulerian fluid variables and Lagrangian interfacial markers. The immersed boundary force has two components: one from the nonhomogeneous surface tension determined by the distribution of surfac...
