Modeling and Simulation of Elastic Surfaces in Flow. An ALE method for simulations of elastic surfaces in flow
Abschlussarbeit
Überblick
Beschreibung
We develop an axisymmetric ALE model to simulate the dynamics of elastic surfaces in flows. As a feature of the method, we take into account the in-plane elasticity of the surface. The method allows to simulate arbitrary elastic shells, for instance the surface of mammalian cells or virtual prototyping of novel thin-shell microswimmres.
