TLDR
In this paper, the authors developed finite difference methods for elliptic equations of the form \[ \nabla \cdot (\beta (x)) + \kappa (x)u(x) = f(x)) in a region in one or two dimensions.
Abstract
The authors develop finite difference methods for elliptic equations of the form \[ \nabla \cdot (\beta (x)\nabla u(x)) + \kappa (x)u(x) = f(x)\] in a region $\Omega $ in one or two space dimension...

The immersed boundary method

TL;DR: This paper is concerned with the mathematical structure of the immersed boundary (IB) method, which is intended for the computer simulation of fluid–structure interaction, especially in biological fluid dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immersed boundary methods

TL;DR: The term immersed boundary (IB) method is used to encompass all such methods that simulate viscous flows with immersed (or embedded) boundaries on grids that do not conform to the shape of these boundaries.

A distributed Lagrange multiplier/fictitious domain method for particulate flows

TL;DR: In this article, a new Lagrange-multiplier based fictitious-domain method is presented for the direct numerical simulation of viscous incompressible flow with suspended solid particles, which uses a finite-element discretization in space and an operator-splitting technique for discretisation in time.

Structural Boundary Design via Level Set and Immersed Interface Methods

TL;DR: An algorithmic approach to the boundary design of elastic structures which allows one to rapidly solve the two-dimensional Lam� equations in arbitrary domains and compute, for example, the stresses, and to develop a systematic way of modifying the design to optimize chosen properties.

Numerical analysis of blood flow in the heart

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended previous work on the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in the presence of moving immersed boundaries which interact with the fluid and introduced an improved numerical representation of the δ-function.

Free and moving boundary problems

John Crank
TL;DR: In this paper, a front-tracking method is used to solve moving boundary problems and an analytical solution of seepage problems is proposed. But this method is not suitable for solving free boundary problems.
