Fluid-structure interactions: from fluid mechanics to mathematical biology
Fluid-structure interactions are ubiquitous in our world: they can be as simple as an elastic filament buckling passively under fluid flow, or as complicated as active remodeling of the structure for propulsion in fluid. A lot of progress has been made in the studies of fluid-structure interactions that involve elastohydrodynamics and electrohydrodynamics in both passive and active systems.
In this talk I will present some of these results with an eye to model/understand physical mechanisms that underly complicated biological processes.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
