The flapping or bending of a flexible planar structure in a surrounding fluid flow, which includes the flapping of flags and the self-streamlining of flexible bodies, constitutes a …
Usually, a body conforming grid is being used for computing the flow around an arbitrary body. This approach requires coordinate transformations and/or complex grid generation …

The immersed boundary method is a methodology for dealing with boundary conditions at fluid–fluid and fluid–solid interfaces. The immersed boundary method has been attracting …
An improved version of the immersed boundary (IB) method is developed for simulating flexible filaments in a uniform flow. The proposed IB method is based on an efficient Navier …
We consider the flapping stability and response of a thin two-dimensional flag of high extensional rigidity and low bending rigidity. The three relevant non-dimensional parameters …
We have introduced a modified penalty approach into the flow-structure interaction solver that combines an immersed boundary method (IBM) and a multi-block lattice Boltzmann …

Like many problems in biofluid mechanics, cardiac mechanics can be modeled as the dynamic interaction of a viscous incompressible fluid (the blood) and a (visco-) elastic …
We establish through numerical simulation conditions for optimal undulatory propulsion for a single fish, and for a pair of hydrodynamically interacting fish, accounting for linear and …
A numerical approach based on the Lattice Boltzmann and Immersed Boundary methods is proposed to tackle the problem of the interaction of moving and/or deformable slender solids …
