Efficient Immersed Boundary Method for Strong Interaction Problem of Arbitrary Shape Object with the Self-Induced Flow

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2007
An immersed boundary method is improved and applied to 2-D flow fields involving a single stationary/moving object. The present immersed boundary method employs a body force proportional to a solid volume fraction for coupling the solid and fluid motions

Topology optimization method for incompressible viscous flow applying an immersed boundary method

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
This paper proposes a new topology optimization method for steady state incompressible viscous flow. Since fluid flow profiles, such as velocity and pressure profiles, describe specific behavior on walls that fluid contacts, defined boundary conditions ...

An inverse problem formulation of the immersed‐boundary method [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 2020
AbstractWe formulate the immersed‐boundary method (IBM) as an inverse problem. A control variable is introduced on the boundary of a larger domain that encompasses the target domain. The optimal control is the one that minimizes the mismatch between the state and the desired boundary value along the immersed target‐domain boundary.

Sharp interface immersed boundary method for simulating three-dimensional swimming fish

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2020
A second order finite-difference numerical method is used to solve the Navier–Stokes equations of incompressible flow, in which the solid body with complex geometry is immersed into the fluid domain with orthogonal Cartesian meshes.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

An immersed boundary method based on the lattice Boltzmann approach in three dimensions, with application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The immersed boundary (IB) method originated by Peskin has been popular in modeling and simulating problems involving the interaction of a flexible structure and a viscous incompressible fluid.

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Numerical Analysis of Flow Geometry in I-Shaped Viscous Micropumps using LB-IBM

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2020
In viscous micropumps one of the main reasons for a flow rate reduction is vortices which are located at the top of the rotating rotor. In this paper, we have tried to add proper additional walls in the micropump channel, to eliminate or decrease the ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
