Fully-resolved simulations of particle-laden viscoelastic fluids using an immersed boundary method

This study reports the development of a direct simulation code for solid spheres moving through viscoelastic fluids with a range of different Theological behaviors. The numerical algorithm was implemented on an open source finite-volume solver coupled with an immersed boundary method, and is able to...
