In this paper, the entity model of a 1.5MW offshore wind turbine blade was built by Pro/Engineer software. fluid flow control equations described by arbitrary Lagrange-Euler (ALE) were established, and the theoretical model of geometrically nonlinear vibration characteristics under fluid-structure interaction (FSI) was given. The simulation of offshore turbulent wind speed was achieved by programming in MATLAB. The brandish displacement, the Mises stress distribution and nonlinear dynamic response curves were obtained. Furthermore, the influence of turbulence and FSI on blade dynamic characteristics was studied. The results show that the response curves of maximum brandish displacement and maximum Mises stress present the attenuation trends. The region of the maximum displacement and maximum stress and their variations at different blade positions are revealed. It was shown that the contribution of turbulence effect (TE) on displacement and stress is smaller than that of the FSI effect, and its extent of contribution is related to the relative span length. In addition, it was concluded that the simulation considering bidirectional FSI (BFSI) can reflect the vibration characteristics of wind turbine blades more accurately.

We consider in this paper numerical approximation of the linear fluid-structure interaction(FSI).We construct a new class of pressure-correction schemes for the linear FSI problem with a fixed interface,and prove rigorously that they are unconditionally *** schemes are computationally very efficient,as they lead to,at each time step,a coupled linear elliptic system for the velocity and displacement in the whole region and a discrete Poisson equation in the fluid region.

Insect wings deform significantly during flight. As a result, wings act as aeroelastic structures wherein both the driving motion of the structure and the aerodynamic loading of the surrounding fluid potentially interact to modify wing shape. We explore two key issues associated with the design of compliant wings: over a range of driving frequencies and phases of pitch-heave actuation, how does wing stiffness influence (1) the lift and thrust generated and (2) the relative importance of fluid loading on the shape of the wing? In order to examine a wide range of parameters relevant to insect flight, we develop a computationally efficient, two-dimensional model that couples point vortex methods for fluid force computations with structural finite element methods to model the fluid-structure interaction of a wing in air. We vary the actuation frequency, phase of actuation, and flexural stiffness over a range that encompasses values measured for a number of insect taxa (10-90 Hz;0-pi rad;10(-7)- 10(-5) Nm(2)). We show that the coefficients of lift and thrust are maximized at the first and second structural resonant frequencies of the system. We also show that even in regions of structural resonance, fluid loading never contributes more than 20% to the development of flight forces.

This study uses fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulation to investigate the relationship between the dentinal fluid flow in the dental pulp of a tooth and the elastic modulus of masticated food particles and to investigate the effects of chewing rate on fluid flow in the dental pulp. Three-dimensional simulation models of a premolar tooth (enamel, dentine, pulp, periodontal ligament, cortical bone, and cancellous bone) and food particle were created. Food particles with elastic modulus of 2,000 and 10,000 MPa were used, respectively. The external displacement loading was gradually directed to the food particle surface for 1 and 0.1 s, respectively, to simulate the chewing of food particles. The displacement and stress on tooth structure and fluid flow in the dental pulp were selected as evaluation indices. The results show that masticating food with a high elastic modulus results in high stress and deformation in the tooth structure, causing faster dentinal fluid flow in the pulp in comparison with that obtained with soft food. In addition, fast chewing of hard food particles can induce faster fluid flow in the pulp, which may result in dental pain. FSI analysis is shown to be a useful tool for investigating dental biomechanics during food mastication. FSI simulation can be used to predict intrapulpal fluid flow in dental pulp;this information may provide the clinician with important concept in dental biomechanics during food mastication.

A monolithic mathematical framework for understanding the fluid-rigid-elastic structureinteraction problem is proposed. A numerical method in a secondary formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations accompanying a technique for imposing the rigid boundaries is applied. The one-fluid formulation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, containing the terms governing the elastic structure, is transformed into the vorticity-stream function formulation. The rigid structure is imposed in the flow field based on the velocity-vorticity kinematic relation and harmonic function theorem. The vorticity, level-set function, and left Cauchy-Green deformation tensor are updated utilizing three transport equations to investigate the evolution of the velocity field, elastic structure(s) configuration, and elastic stress tensor. The method is implemented to solve three challenging problems, and the results show its capabilities in proper imposing the rigid structures in the flow field and also the simultaneous modeling the rigid and elastic structureinteractions with incompressible fluid flow.

In many situations, the vibrating structures are in contact with a fluid (fluid around the hulls of a boat, reservoirs, heat exchangers in power plants, etc.), but the dynamic behavior of the structure can be significantly modified by the presence of the fluid. The sizing must take into account the effects of fluid-structure interaction. Traditionally, the study of mechanical systems fluid-structure interaction is based on a deterministic approach where all the parameters used in the model are a fixed value. But it suffices to having conducted a few experimentations to realize that the limitations of such modeling. Hence it needs to take into accounts the uncertainty in the parameters of mechanical systems. This work proposes to take the characteristics of the structure and the fluid as random and shows the efficiency of such approach. The proposed numerical stochastic method of the modal synthesis extended to reliability study, based on FORM (First Order Reliability Method) and SORM (Second Order Reliability Method) approaches, for solving the large vibro-acoustic problems. The numerical method used takes into account the uncertainties of the input parameters of the two domains. The application of the proposed method is performed on a boat propeller immersed in air and water. To validate the calculation process, the numerical study is compared to an experimental study.

The distinctive paper is devoted to problems of solution of fluid flows, modelled using the Navier-Stokes or Euler equations, and coupled with structures ( solids). Brief literature review is presented. Problem formulation, finite element discretization, simultaneous and partitioned solution procedures, are discussed, and advantages and disadvantages of their use are mentioned. Some state-of-the-art numerical solutions, obtained by ANSYS Mechanical, ANSYS CFX and ABAQUS, are also presented to indicate problems that can now be solved using currently available techniques.

This paper gives an overview of a comprehensive simulation methodology for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) of offshore wind turbines that is being developed at the Applied Mathematics Department of SINTEF ICT. The methodology will account for most of the scales ranging from mesoscale meteorology through microscale meteorology to the aerodynamics of wind turbine blades. The meso and micro scales are handled through a unidirectional coupling of a meso and micro scale atmospheric code while the fluidstructureinteraction part is dealt with an isogeometric finite element based fluid-structure simulation code IFEM. In the current work we have shown the potential of the coupled system which is actually meant to generate realistic boundary condition as a wind forecasting tool. Also we present a comparison of the IFEM computed drag, lift and moment coefficients against experimental data for flow around a 3-D oscillating airfoil. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

A multidimensional analysis code for reactive shocks (MARS), which is developed to solve various problems in the physical hazard analysis of high energetic materials, has been applied to such complex problems as multi-material problem and sympathetic problem because it can employ various types of equations of state and a materials database. However, it was difficult to meet a growing demand for large-scale analysis and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis. To address these issues, this study reports a parallelization of the code and an implementation of the functional capability of FSI analysis, and performance results for sample problems were also shown.

The theoretical model of weakly compressible coupling water hammer was established and a FSI program code was developed for coupled weakly compressible water with penstock movement. It combines the weakly compressible water source CFD code and FEM shell element code. The shell element based on orthogonal curvilinear coordinates was completed in FEAP. Meanwhile, the turbulence model in OpenFoam class library was called by using object-oriented technology. This code takes into account both the weak compressibility of water and fluid turbulence characteristics. Using this code, a fluidstructureinteraction analysis with water hammer was completed. The numerical results agree well with the field test results.
