Complex Dynamics of an Acoustically Levitated Fluid Droplet Captured by a Low-Order Immersed Boundary Method
Jacqueline B. Sustiel, David G. Grier
We present a novel immersed boundary method that implements acoustic perturbation theory to model an acoustically levitated droplet. Instead of resolving sound waves numerically, o…
