Modeling and simulation of active suspensions containing large numbers of interacting micro-swimmers
Fast numerical method to compute the colonial dynamics of micro-swimmers. Includes long-range interactions and short-range steric effects between swimmers. The methodology uses the immersed boundary framework. Can efficiently simulate many thousands of interacting motile particles in 3D. Can use the method to study many biological and physical phenomena.
