Fish in schooling formations navigate complex flow fields replete with mechanical energy in the vortex wakes of their companions. Their schooling behavior has been associated with …
Predictive simulations of complex systems are essential for applications ranging from weather forecasting to drug design. The veracity of these predictions hinges on their …
The coordinated motion by multiple swimmers is a fundamental component in fish schooling. The flow field induced by the motion of each self-propelled swimmer implies non-linear …
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly invasive brain tumor, whose cells infiltrate surrounding normal brain tissue beyond the lesion outlines visible in the current medical scans. These …
Direct numerical simulations of the flow past an impulsively started cylinder at high Reynolds numbers (25k–100k) reveal an intriguing portrait of unsteady separation. Vorticity generation …
We present numerical methods that enable the direct numerical simulation of two-phase flows in irregular domains. A method is presented to account for surface tension effects in a …
We introduce and validate a weak coupling approach between a body-fitted velocity- pressure solver and a Vortex Particle-Mesh (VPM) method in 2D for the simulation of …
This paper presents a two-dimensional implementation of the high-order penalized vortex in cell method applied to solve the flow past an airfoil with a vortex trapping cavity operating …
Natural swimmers rely for their survival on sensors that gather information from the environment and guide their actions. The spatial organization of these sensors, such as the …
