| contents | This paper proposes a scalable lattice-Boltzmann computational framework (SBoTFlow) for simulations of flexible moving objects in an incompressible fluid flow. Behavior of fluid flow formed from moving boundaries of flexible-object motions is obtained through the multidirect forcing immersed boundary scheme associated with the lattice Boltzmann equation with a parallel topology-confined block refinement framework. We first demonstrate that the hydrodynamic quantities computed in this manner for standard benchmarks, including the Tayler-Green vortex flow and flow over an obstacle-embedded lid-driven cavity and an isolated circular cylinder, agree well with those previously published in the literature. We then exploit the framework to probe the underlying dynamic properties contributing to fluid flow under flexible motions at different Reynolds numbers by simulating large-scale flapping wing motions of both amplitude and frequency. The analysis shows that the proposed numerical framework for pitching and flapping motions has a strong ability to accurately capture high amplitudes, specifically up to $64^\circ$, and a frequency of $f=1/2.5π$. This suggests that the present parallel numerical framework has the potential to be used in studying flexible motions, such as insect flight or wing aerodynamics. |
