IMMERSED BOUNDARY TECHNIQUE

Geometry

“ray tracing”

TAGGING

A special treatment is needed for the cells close to the immersed boundary

“fluid” cells

“solid” cells

interface cells

Page 5: Wall modeling challenges for the immersed boundary method G. Pascazio Workshop Num. Methods non-body fitted grids - Maratea, May 13-15 2010 POLITECNICO.

FORCING

Direct forcing (Mohd-Yusof)

- The governing equations are not modified- The boundary conditions are enforced directly- Sharp interface

Thus, a local reconstruction of the solution close to the immersed boundary is needed.

The boundary condition has to be imposed at the interface cells, which do not coincide with the body.

During the computation, the flow variables at the center of the fluid cells are the unknowns, the solid cells do not influence the flow field at all, and at the interface cells the forcing is applied

Arbitrarily shaped particle transport

in an incompressible flow

Page 43: Wall modeling challenges for the immersed boundary method G. Pascazio Workshop Num. Methods non-body fitted grids - Maratea, May 13-15 2010 POLITECNICO.

MOTIVATION and BACKGROUND

Ferrari, Nat Can Rev, 2005

Use of micro/nano-particles for drug delivery and imaging.

Properly designed micro/nano-particles, once administered at the systemic level and transported by the blood flow along the circulatory system, are expected to improve the efficiency of molecule-based therapy and imaging by increasing the mass fraction of therapeutic molecules and tracers that are able to reach their targets

MOTIVATION and BACKGROUND

Ferrari, Nat Can Rev, 2005

Particles are transported by the blood flow and interact specifically (ligand-receptor bonds) and non-specifically (e.g., van der Waals, electrostatic interactions) with the blood vessel walls, seeking for their target (diseased endothelium).

The intravascular “journey” of the particle can be broken down into two events: margination dynamics and firm adhesion.

PEG

ligands

Page 45: Wall modeling challenges for the immersed boundary method G. Pascazio Workshop Num. Methods non-body fitted grids - Maratea, May 13-15 2010 POLITECNICO.

MOTIVATION and BACKGROUND

The margination is a well-known term in physiology conventionally used to describe the lateral drift of leukocytes and platelets from the core blood vessel towards the endothelial walls.

The observation of inhomogeneous radial distributions of particles in tube flow dates from the work of Poiseuille (1836) who was mainly concerned by the flow of blood and the behavior of the red and white corpuscles it carries.

Experimental results (Segré & Silberberg, JFM 1962) show the radial migration develops in a pipe from a uniform concentration at the entrance.

Equilibrium position r/R = 0.62

An accurate model predicting the behavior of intravascularly injectable particles can lead to a dramatic reduction of the “bench-to-bed” time for the development of innovative MNP-based therapeutic and imaging agents.

• Selection of the particle shape for “optimal” margination• Interaction models: particle-wall & particle-particle

• Fluid-structure interaction solver is effective in the simulation of the transport dynamics of particles in an incompressible flow;

• Particles with arbitrary shape can be handled; • Transport of bolus of particles is feasible.

CONCLUSIONS (2)Arbitrarily shaped particle transport

Work in progress
