Modeling and Simulation of Elastic Rods with Intrinsic Curvature and Twist Immersed in Fluid

Understanding the dynamics of thin elastic rods that are immersed in fluid is fundamental in explaining many problems that arise in biology, physics and engineering. Solving the coupled system of rod-fluid in 3D is usually very costly, however in case of low Reynolds number, the three-dimensional pr...
