Book excerpt: An extended immersed boundary (IB) methodology utilizing a semi-implicit direct forcing approach was formulated for the simulation of incompressible flows in the presence of periodically moving immersed bodies. The methodology utilizes a Schur complement approach to enforce the kinematic constraints of no-slip for immersed surfaces. The methodology is split into an "embarrassingly" parallel pre-computing stage and a time integration stage, both of which take advantage of the general parallel file system (GPFS) for efficient writing and reading of large amounts of data.
