TLDR
In this paper, the authors generalize the FEIBM to the case where an incompressible Newtonian fluid interacts with a general hyperelastic solid, allowing the mass density to be different in the solid and the fluid, and the solid to be either viscoelastic of differential type or purely elastic.

Fluid–structure interaction, immersed boundary-finite element method simulations of bio-prosthetic heart valves

TL;DR: The capabilities of the FSI solver are demonstrated by simulating the first fully three-dimensional fluid–structure interaction of tissue valves implanted in the aortic position during systole under physiologic flow conditions, and it is observed that the flow’s threefold symmetry breaks during the early systoles, questioning the three fold symmetry assumption of previous simulations.

Hybrid finite difference/finite element immersed boundary method.

TL;DR: In this article, a coupling scheme for the immersed boundary method is introduced to link the Lagrangian and Eulerian variables that facilitates independent spatial discretizations for the structure and background grid.

Nonsingular isogeometric boundary element method for Stokes flows in 3D

TL;DR: A nonsingular formulation of IGA-BEM is proposed for 3D Stokes flows, whose convergence is carefully tested numerically and standard Gaussian quadrature rules suffice to integrate the boundary integral equations, and carefully chosen known exact solutions of the interior Stokes problem are used to correct the resulting matrices.

A fictitious domain approach with Lagrange multiplier for fluid-structure interactions

TL;DR: A recently introduced formulation for fluid-structure interaction problems which makes use of a distributed Lagrange multiplier in the spirit of the fictitious domain method is studied and optimal convergence estimates are proved.

The Finite Element Immersed Boundary Method with Distributed Lagrange Multiplier

TL;DR: In this article, a new formulation for the finite element immersed boundary method which makes use of a distributed Lagrange multiplier is introduced. But it is not shown that the model is stable with respect to the time step size.
