In this article, we deal with the numerical immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method for simulation of the fluid-structure interaction problems in 2D. We consider the interaction of incompressible, Newtonian fluid in an isothermal system with an elastic fiber, which represents an immersed body boundary. First, a short introduction to the lattice Boltzmann and immersed boundary method is presented and the combination of these two methods is briefly discussed. Then, the choice of the smooth approximation of the Dirac delta function and the discretization of the immersed body is discussed. One of the significant drawbacks of immersed boundary method is the penetrative flow through the immersed impermeable boundary. The effect of the immersed body boundary discretization is investigated using two benchmark problems, where an elastic fiber is deformed. The results indicate that the restrictions placed on the discretization in literature are not necessary.

Keywords: Cascaded lattice Boltzmann method, immersed boundary method, penalty immersed boundary method, computational study, Lagrangian point spacing.
