This project is working with a group that is developing a code that interlinks a prototype moving mesh simulation, with Partial Differential Equation (PDE) solvers in order to solve complex engineering problems. The advanced features of the mesh generator allow for complex two-dimensional problems to be solved. This project encompasses two problems. The first is implementing a cell membrane (for a red blood cell) into a previously developed convection problem. The second problem is to model thrombus formation on the wall of a sudden expansion. The undergraduate student is working closely with the engineers, mathematicians, and computer scientists involved with the code. The engineers are responsible for developing the problems that will be solved, while the undergraduate researcher is responsible for implementing them into code.
