Synopsis

The special session focused on simulating the motion of an incompressible fluid driven by flexible immersed structures, such as biological fluid driven by the flexing of muscle tissue. The 11 papers consider such topics as the development of the immersed finite element method, a regularization method for the numerical solution of doubly-periodic Stokes flow, motions of filaments with planar and helical bending waves in a viscous fluid, a numerical study of scaling effects in peristalsis and dynamic suction pumping, and impacts of facilitated urea transporters on the urine-concentration mechanisms in the rat kidney.
