Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problems commonly encountered in engineering and
biological applications involve geometrically complex flexible or rigid bodies undergoing …

An efficient approach for the simulation of finite-size particles with interface resolution was
presented by Uhlmann [M. Uhlmann, An immersed boundary method with direct forcing for …

Even though the mechanical heart valve (MHV) has been used routinely in clinical practice
for over 60 years, the occurrence of serious complications such as blood clotting remains to …

We present an immersed-boundary algorithm for incompressible flows with complex
boundaries, suitable for Cartesian or curvilinear grid system. The key stages of any …

A wall-layer model is proposed for large eddy simulation of high Reynolds number turbulent
flows in conjunction with immersed boundaries. The model is based on two main steps: the …

Unconfined three-dimensional gravity currents generated by lock exchange using a small
dividing gate in a sufficiently large tank are investigated by means of large eddy simulations …

An hybrid approach is proposed which allows to combine Finite Volume Method (FVM) and
Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). The method is based on the partitioning of the …

Use of immersed boundary method (IBM) based techniques have helped considerably in
easing the grid generation process in flows involving complex geometries and/or large …

This paper presents an immersed boundary method (IBM) to model the behaviour of solid–
fluid interfaces in incompressible flows on non-conforming, unstructured meshes. Based on …

Immersed boundary methods coupled with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) are a powerful
tool to solve complex viscous incompressible flow problems, especially in the presence of …
