Level Set Methods for Fluid-Structure Interaction

This monograph is devoted to Eulerian models for fluid-structure interaction by applying the original point of view of level set methods. In the last 15 years, Eulerian models have become popular tools for studying fluid-structure interaction problems. One major advantage compared to more conventional methods such as ALE methods is that they allow the use of a single grid and a single discretization method for the different media. Level set methods in addition provide a general framework to foll
