Microorganisms play a vital role in many biological, medical and engineering phenomena. Some recent research efforts have demonstrated the importance of biomechanics in understanding certain aspects of microorganism behaviors such as locomotion and collective motions of cells. Previous studies had problems of high computational load in simulating many-body interaction of swimmers. In this study, we propose a boundary element method, based on the double-layer representation, for calculating interactions of many-body swimmers in Stokes flow regime. We use Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) to speed up the computation. We then analyze interactions of 100 swimmers.
