Fig. 3From: Numerical simulation of solid deformation driven by creeping flow using an immersed finite element method Discretisation of fluid and solid domains. Immersed finite element discretisation of the fluid–solid problem at time instant \(t_n\): fluid finite elements (left), solid finite elements (right); the hatched elements allow to accurately interpolate the solution across the interface \(\Gamma _n\) and are referred to as cut elements Back to article page
