A fully one-sided diffuse-interface immersed boundary method for wall-modeled large-eddy simulation
Qian Mao, Yoshiharu Tamaki, Song Zhao +3
Diffuse-interface immersed boundary methods (DIBMs) provide a simple and robust approach for simulating flows involving complex geometries. However, their inherent diffusion effect…

An improved fully one-sided diffuse-interface immersed boundary method with target-value reconstruction for compressible flows
Qian Mao, Song Zhao, Pierre Boivin +1
Although one-sided spreading has been shown to improve the near-wall accuracy of diffuse-interface immersed boundary methods (DIBMs), the effect of its asymmetric kernel support on…

Fluid transport by a single active filament in a three-dimensional two-phase flow
Qian Mao, Umberto d'Ortona, Julien Favier
Micro-scale cilia play a vital role in mucociliary clearance (MCC) in the human respiratory airways. In this numerical study, we examine fluid transport driven by the active beatin…
