We present a hybrid level set-front tracking approach suitable for fluid-structure interaction and two-phase flow applications. Our approach aims at extending geometrical flexibility of standard mesh moving/front tracking methods by introducing an additional implicit level set representation of the geometry under consideration. The computational mesh is automatically aligned to the implicitly described geometry by minimizing a nonlinear, constrained functional. Resulting triangulations approximate the geometry accurately while being optimal in a certain sense. Due to the mesh alignment, finite element spaces defined on these triangulations may be easily adjusted to account for special solution properties such as discontinuities across interfaces. In order to demonstrate the flexibility of the proposed approach, we apply it to a simplified one-way coupled fluid-structure interaction problem inspired by the flow induced by a moving cardiac valve. Furthermore we evaluate the approach by solving a two-phase flow benchmark problem. (c) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

In this lead paper of the special issue, we provide some comments on challenges and directions in computational fluid-structure interaction (FSI). We briefly discuss the significance of computational FSI methods, their components, moving-mesh and nonmoving-mesh methods, mesh moving and remeshing concepts, and FSI coupling techniques.

This study examines multiple computational techniques to analyze dynamic responses of composite structures subject to fluid-structure interaction (FSI). A plate bending finite element with displacement degrees of freedom only is developed and implemented using a Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) formulation. Because the plate elements can be stacked on top of one another like 3-D solid elements, delamination or debonding between any two layers can be modeled easily. Multiple approaches to analyzing such failure are presented and evaluated. A hybrid Finite Element-Cellular Automata (FE-CA) approach is also presented to model a fluid domain as an acoustic field using the wave equation. The coupled technique can take advantage of both methods such as computational efficiency, non-reflecting boundary representation and easy coupling with a structure with a complex shape. The FE-CA fluid model is then combined with the DG structural model to simulate fluid-structure interaction. All the computational techniques are assessed for their accuracy by comparing with analytical, experimental and other numerical solutions. Each technique addressed shows promise for flexible and accurate modeling of dynamic behaviors of damaged or undamaged laminated composite structures subject to fluid-structure interaction with moderate computational costs.

Since it's difficult to study the fluid/structureinteractions in a rotor-bearing system using the conventional method, a new transient analysis method combining computational fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interaction was applied based on actual physical model. Both thermal influence and cavitation were studied. A comparison with the published experimental results was presented and discussed, and theoretical predictions agreed well with the experimental results. Four rotor-bearing systems with different grooves were studied. This developed method can be a very useful tool for the study on the bearing lubrication problem, and can effectively and accurately predict the transient lubrication process. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

With more and more high-rise building being constructed in recent decades, bluff body flow with high Reynolds number and large scale dimensions has become an important topic in theoretical researches and engineering applications. In view of mechanics, the key problems in such flow are high Reynolds number turbulence and fluid-solid interaction. Aiming at such problems, a parallel fluid-structure interaction method based on socket parallel architecture was established and combined with the methods and models of large eddy simulation developed by authors recently. The new method is validated by the full two-way FSI simulations of 1:375 CAARC building model with Re = 70000 and a full scale Taipei101 high-rise building with Re = 1e8, The results obtained show that the proposed method and models is potential to perform high-Reynolds number LES and high-efficiency two-way coupling between detailed fluid dynamics computing and solid structure dynamics computing so that the detailed wind induced responses for high-rise buildings can be resolved practically.

In many space missions, expandable or reusable launch systems are used. In this context, the reliable design of liquid rocket engines (LREs) is a key issue. In the present paper, we present a novel combination of numerical schemes. It is applied to model the extreme physical phenomena a typical LRE undergoes during its loading cycles. The numerical scheme includes a partitioned fluid-structure interaction (FSI) algorithm in combination with a unified viscoplastic damage model. This allows the complex description of the material response under cyclic thermomechanical loading taking place in LREs. In this regard, we focus on the response of the cooling channel wall that is made from copper alloys. For the coupled FSI analysis, the individual domains of the rocket thrust chamber are modeled by a 3D parametrized approach. The well-established single field solver codes, DLR TAU for the hot gas and ABAQUS FE software for the structural domain, are coupled via the inhouse developed simulation environment ifls. Ifls provides the necessary algorithms for a partitioned coupling approach such as individual code steering, data interpolation, time integration and iteration control. Finally, the results of an FSI analysis of a complete engine cycle are presented. They show the potential of the new numerical scheme for the lifetime prediction of *** (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Many problems of interest in biological fluid mechanics involve interactions between fluids and solids that require the coupled solution of momentum equations for both the fluid and the solid. In this work, we develop a mathematical framework and an adaptive numerical method for such fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems in which the structure may be rigid, deforming, or elastic. We employ an immersed boundary (IB) formulation of the problem that permits us to avoid body conforming discretizations and to use fast Cartesian grid solvers. Rigidity and deformational kinematic constraints are imposed using a formulation based on distributed Lagrange multipliers, and a conventional IB method is used to describe the elasticity of the immersed body. We use Cartesian grid adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) to discretize the equations of motion and thereby obtain a solution methodology that efficiently captures thin boundary layers at fluid-solid interfaces as well as flow structures shed from such interfaces. This adaptive methodology is validated for several benchmark problems in two and three spatial dimensions. In addition, we use this scheme to simulate free swimming, including the maneuvering of a two-dimensional model eel and a three-dimensional model of the weakly electric black ghost knifefish.

In this review article, the focus is on partitioned simulation techniques for strongly coupled fluid-structure interaction problems, especially on techniques which use at least one of the solvers as a black box. First, a number of analyses are reviewed to explain why Gauss-Seidel coupling iterations converge slowly or not at all for fluid-structure interaction problems with strong coupling. This provides the theoretical basis for the fast convergence of quasi-Newton and multi-level techniques. Second, several partitioned techniques that couple two black-box solvers are compared with respect to implementation and performance. Furthermore, performance comparisons between partitioned and monolithic techniques are examined. Subsequently, two similar techniques to couple a black-box solver with an accessible solver are analyzed. In addition, several other techniques for fluid-structure interaction simulations are studied and various methods to take into account deforming fluid domains are discussed.
