MGM: A meshfree geometric multilevel method for systems arising from elliptic equations on point cloud surfaces

Grady B. Wright, Andrew M. Jones, Varun Shankar

We develop a new meshfree geometric multilevel (MGM) method for solving linear systems that arise from discretizing elliptic PDEs on surfaces represented by point clouds. The metho…

A fine-grained parallelization of the immersed boundary method

Andrew Kassen, Varun Shankar, Aaron L Fogelson

We present new algorithms for the parallelization of Eulerian-Lagrangian interaction operations in the immersed boundary method. Our algorithms rely on two well-studied parallel pr…

Pump efficacy in a fluid-structure interaction model of a chain of contracting lymphangions

Hallie Elich, Aaron Barrett, Varun Shankar +1

The transport of lymph through the lymphatic vasculature is the mechanism for returning excess interstitial fluid to the circulatory system, and it is essential for fluid homeostas…

An Efficient High-Order Meshless Method for Advection-Diffusion Equations on Time-Varying Irregular Domains

Varun Shankar, Grady B. Wright, Aaron L. Fogelson

We present a high-order radial basis function finite difference (RBF-FD) framework for the solution of advection-diffusion equations on time-varying domains. Our framework is based…
