A high-order immersed-boundary method for simulation of incompressible flows

The use of immersed-boundary methods to solve complex/moving-boundary flow problems, especially those in biofluid dynamics, has been popular in recent years. Such methods typically employ a stationary structured grid, e.g., a Cartesian grid, for spatial discretization, so that grid generation is rel...
