Curvilinear immersed boundary method for simulating fluid structure interaction with complex 3D rigid bodies

TL;DR: Numerical experiments for fluid structure interaction (FSI) problems involving complex 3D rigid bodies undergoing large structural displacements suggest that both the properties of the structure and local flow conditions can play an important role in determining the stability of the FSI algorithm.

A sharp-interface immersed boundary method with improved mass conservation and reduced spurious pressure oscillations

TL;DR: The proposed cut-cell based approach to reducing spurious pressure oscillations observed when simulating moving boundary flow problems with sharp-interface immersed boundary methods is shown to retain all the desirable properties of the original finite-difference based IBM while at the same time, reducing pressure oscillation for moving boundaries by roughly an order of magnitude.

A smoothing technique for discrete delta functions with application to immersed boundary method in moving boundary simulations

TL;DR: It has been shown that the smoothed discrete delta functions constructed in this paper have one-order higher derivative than the regular ones, which can effectively suppress the non-physical oscillations in the volume forces and improve the accuracy of the immersed boundary method with direct forcing in moving boundary simulations.

Fronts propagating with curvature-dependent speed: algorithms based on Hamilton-Jacobi formulations

TL;DR: The PSC algorithm as mentioned in this paper approximates the Hamilton-Jacobi equations with parabolic right-hand-sides by using techniques from the hyperbolic conservation laws, which can be used also for more general surface motion problems.

On the identification of a vortex

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a definition of vortex in an incompressible flow in terms of the eigenvalues of the symmetric tensor, which captures the pressure minimum in a plane perpendicular to the vortex axis at high Reynolds numbers, and also accurately defines vortex cores at low Reynolds numbers.
