Efficient simulation of filament elastohydrodynamics in three dimensions
Benjamin J. Walker, Kenta Ishimoto, Eamonn A. Gaffney
Fluid-structure simulations of slender inextensible filaments in a viscous fluid are often plagued by numerical stiffness. Recent coarse-graining studies have reduced the computati…

The pairwise hydrodynamic interactions of synchronized spermatozoa
Benjamin J. Walker, Kenta Ishimoto, Eamonn A. Gaffney
The journey of mammalian spermatozoa in nature is well-known to be reliant on their individual motility. Often swimming in crowded microenvironments, the progress of any single swi…

Filament mechanics in a half-space via regularised Stokeslet segments
Benjamin J. Walker, Kenta Ishimoto, Hermes Gadêlha +1
We present a generalisation of efficient numerical frameworks for modelling fluid-filament interactions via the discretisation of a recently-developed, non-local integral equation…
