- We introduce a high-order boundary integral method for simulating dense
- suspensions of rigid discs in a Stokesian fluid in 2D. Our method efficiently
- handles close-to-touching interactions down to distances of 1e-10 with only a
- coarse discretization of the boundary. Additionally, we present a
- preconditioner that significantly reduces the number of GMRES iterations
- required for solving the Stokes mobility problem at each time step. Coupled
- with high-order, adaptive time-stepping using spectral deferred correction, we
- are able to take larger time steps, mitigating the temporal stiffness resulting
- from close-to-touching interactions.
