We present an efficient, accurate, and robust method for simulation of dense suspensions of deformable and rigid particles immersed in Stokesian fluid in two dimensions. We use a well-established boundary integral formulation for the…
We present a methodology for simulating dilute suspensions of particles settling under gravity, with the main purpose of overcoming limitations of triply periodic configurations, mainly the strong vertical correlation that hinders the study…
Discrete Element Methods (DEM), i.e.~the simulation of many rigid particles, suffer from very stiff differential equations plus multiscale challenges in space and time. The particles move smoothly through space until they interact almost…
We present a parallel-scalable method for simulating non-dilute suspensions of deformable particles immersed in Stokesian fluid in three dimensions. A critical component in these simulations is robust and accurate collision handling. This…
Discrete simulation methods are efficient tools to investigate the complex behaviors of complex fluids made of either dry granular materials or dilute suspensions. By contrast, materials made of soft and/or concentrated units (emulsions,…
We introduce a novel approach to simulate the interaction between fluids and thin elastic solids without any penetration. Our approach is centered around an optimization system augmented with barriers, which aims to find a configuration…
We study the dynamics of the solid to liquid transition for a model material made of elastic particles immersed in a viscous fluid. The interaction between particle surfaces includes their viscous lubrication, a sharp repulsion when they…
This paper deals with the problem of simulating dense dispersed systems composed by large numbers of particles undergoing ballistic aggregation. The most classical approaches for dealing with such problems are represented by the so-called…
Recent applications (e.g. active gels and self-assembly of elastic sheets) motivate the need to efficiently simulate the dynamics of thin elastic sheets. We present semi-implicit time stepping algorithms to improve the time step constraints…
Rigid particles in a Stokesian fluid can physically not overlap, as a thin layer of fluid always separates a particle pair, exerting increasingly strong repulsive forces on the bodies for decreasing separations. Numerically, resolving these…
We demonstrate that discontinuous shear thickening (DST) can occur even in moderately dense, inertial suspensions of hydrodynamically interacting, frictionless soft particles. Using the Lubrication-Friction Discrete Element Method, our…
Within this paper, we introduce partially and fully decoupled time stepping schemes for linear thermo-poroelasticity. This means that the mechanics, heat, and flow equations can be solved sequentially. We provide sufficient conditions on…
An effective paradigm for simulating the dynamics of robots that locomote and manipulate is multi-rigid body simulation with rigid contact. This paradigm provides reasonable tradeoffs between accuracy, running time, and simplicity of…
This work is devoted to the definition and the analysis of the effective viscosity associated with a random suspension of small rigid particles in a steady Stokes fluid. While previous works on the topic have been conveniently assuming that…
In this paper, we propose a linear and monolithic finite element method for the approximation of an incompressible viscous fluid interacting with an elastic and deforming plate. We use the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach that…
We propose a time discretization scheme for a class of ordinary differential equations arising in simulations of fluid/particle flows. The scheme is intended to work robustly in the lubrication regime when the distance between two particles…
We investigate through numerical simulations the hydrodynamic interactions between two rigid spherical particles suspended on the axis of a cylindrical tube filled with an elastoviscoplastic fluid subjected to pressure-driven flow. The…
Robustly handling collisions between individual particles in a large particle-based simulation has been a challenging problem. We introduce particle merging-and-splitting, a simple scheme for robustly handling collisions between particles…
The 2-step staggered (also called leap-frog) time discretisation of linear 2nd-order Hamiltonian systems (typically linear elastodynamics in a stress-velocity form) is extended for a 3-step staggered discretisation applicable for systems…
We consider a fully discrete loosely coupled scheme for incompressible fluid-structure interaction based on the time semi-discrete splitting method introduced in {\emph{[Burman, Durst \& Guzm\'an, arXiv:1911.06760]}}. The splittling method…
