DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Nick Battista (The College of New Jersey)\nFrom hear
 t tubes to respiratory breathing\, many organisms use valveless pumping me
 chanisms for internal flow transport. These pumping mechanisms were first 
 seen in basal chordates\, e.g.\, tunicates\, where the drove through throu
 gh their open circulatory systems. As evolution took its course these pump
 ing techniques begun to be found in insect hearts and during first stage o
 f vertebrate heart development\, when the heart is nothing more than a val
 veless tube. However\, valveless pumping is not unique to only circulatory
  systems\; some anthropods\, such pycnogonids (sea spiders) use it for res
 piratory purposes as well. In this talk we will use fully-coupled fluid-st
 ructure interaction models to explore various valveless pumping techniques
  and their implications for internal flows produced across a variety of or
 ganisms and biological scales.\n\nhttps://conferences.maths.unsw.edu.au/ev
