Fluid–Structure Interaction Modeling Applied to Peristaltic Pump Flow Simulations

In this study, fluid−structure interaction (FSI) modeling was applied for predicting the fluid flow in a specific peristaltic pump, composed of one metallic roller and a hyperelastic tube pumping a viscous Newtonian fluid. Hyperelastic material dynamics and turbulence flow dynamics were co...
