SUMMARY:Computational Modelling of Flow Phenomena in the Inner Ear
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\nComputer Science and Applied Mathematics, Physi
 cs, Life Sciences, Engineering\n\nComputational Modelling of Flow Phenomen
 a in the Inner Ear\n\nObrist\n\nThe inner ear hosts the hearing and balanc
 e senses. It is a fluid filled organ and comprises several soft membranes 
 which interact with the fluid flow. Computational modelling of the biomech
 anics of this organ requires modelling of fluid-structure interaction, par
 ticulate flows and high-frequency phenomena. We will present computational
  models for several flow phenomena in the inner ear, such as: travelling w
 ave phenomena and particulate flow in the semicircular canals leading to v
 ertigo, the effect of vestibular herniations on the balance sense, and mas
 s transport phenomena in cochlear mechanics. Next to the physiological and
  pathological effects, we will focus on the computational and numerical ch
 allenges for modelling flow phenomena in the inner ear. This includes a di
 scussion of the immersed boundary method for fluid-structure interaction p
 roblems, the method of fundamental solutions for Stokes flow problems in c
 omplex geometries and the force coupling method for studying flows with fi
 nite-size particles.
