Precise placement of immersed boundaries: using asymptotic methods to improve simulations of fluid flow in complex domains
Paul Dellar
(Oxford)
Forthcoming events in this series
Aspects of my current research will be reviewed. In terms of reaction diffusion equations, I will review current work on cancer modelling and biological pattern formation. I will then proceed to consider biological applications of low Reynolds number fluid dynamics with respect to cilia-induced flows in the lung and human spermatozoa dynamics.
This talk will discuss recent work on 3-phase junctions (electrolyte wedges)
in porous electrodes, including nonlinear reaction kinetics. Recent work on
reaction route representations (Kirchoff graphs) will also be discussed.
