Hi @JunyanL In step 11 (cavity flow), the pressure gradient is discretized using a central-difference scheme. To compute the pressure gradient in the x-direction at grid point `i`, we use...

Hi Haider-BA, In cuIBM, the kinematics of an immersed body is entirely prescribed. You can find the method to update the location of a body in the class `body` defined...

Non-functional CPU routines will be removed from the `master` (in-progress). The code with those routines is now available in the branch called `deprecated-cpu-routines`.

I agree with you on the discussion about the stability of the wake; it would be way to long to explain that and side-tracking from the message of the paper....

With PetIBM-0.1.1, the manuscript reports the numerical solution obtained with a relative tolerance of 1.0E-05 for each iterative solver. We tried to use more stringent relative tolerances; we decreased the...

With IBAMR, we refined the mesh (halving the smallest grid-spacing, from 0.004 to 0.002) while keeping the other input parameters identical (including the default relative tolerance of 1.0E-06 for the...

Although we were able to replicate, with IBAMR, the main finding of Krishnan et al. (2014), we would like to provide an additional result concerning the flow at Reynolds number...

Addressing reviewer comment # 14 > Computations actually began in the 1940’s in Los Alamos (during WWII). The first punched cards were used for the data flow of the calculation...

About reviewer comment # 11: > The outflow boundary conditions issues were explored at length in the 1990’s by Phil Gresho and other researchers and documented in the Int. J...

About the mesh convergence with OpenFOAM: In our manuscript, we report the numerical solution obtained with icoFoam on a two-dimensional mesh generated with snappyHexMesh (one of the mesh utilities of...
