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…

A Mathematical Model of Platelet Aggregation in an Extravascular Injury Under Flow

Kathryn G. Link, Matthew G. Sorrells, Nicholas A. Danes +3

We present the first mathematical model of flow-mediated primary hemostasis in an extravascular injury, which can track the process from initial deposition to occlusion. The model…

Hyperviscosity-Based Stabilization for Radial Basis Function-Finite Difference (RBF-FD) Discretizations of Advection-Diffusion Equations

Varun Shankar, Aaron L. Fogelson

We present a novel hyperviscosity formulation for stabilizing RBF-FD discretizations of the advection-diffusion equation. The amount of hyperviscosity is determined quasi-analytica…

A Study of Different Modeling Choices For Simulating Platelets Within the Immersed Boundary Method

Varun Shankar, Grady B. Wright, Aaron L. Fogelson +1

The Immersed Boundary (IB) method is a widely-used numerical methodology for the simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems. The IB method utilizes an Eulerian discretizati…
