چکیده

Direct numerical solution of the highly nonlinear equations governing even the most simplified models of fluid-structure interaction requires that both the flow field and the domain shape be determined as part of the solution since neither is known a priori. To accomplish this, previous algorithms have decoupled the solid and fluid mechanics, solving for each separately and converging iteratively to a solution which satisfies both. In this paper, we describe a nonconforming finite element method which solves the problem of interaction between a viscous incompressible fluid and a structure whose deformation defines the interface between the two simultaneously. A general methodology is described for the model 2D problem and the algorithm is validated computationally for a one-dimensional example.

A Hybridized Crouziex-Raviart Nonconforming Finite Element and Discontinuous Galerkin Method for a Two-Phase Flow in the Porous Media

In this study, we present a numerical solution for the two-phase incompressible flow in the porous media under isothermal condition using a hybrid of the linear lower-order nonconforming finite element and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. This hybridization is developed for the first time in the two-phase modeling and considered as the main novelty of this research.The p...

The order of convergence of Eigenfrequencies in finite element approximations of fluid-structure interaction problems

In this paper we prove a double order for the convergence of eigenfrequencies in fluid-structure vibration problems. We improve estimates given recently for compressible and incompressible fluids. To do this, we extend classical results on finite element spectral approximation to nonconforming methods for noncompact operators.

مدل‌سازی اجزای محدود برش ماده فولادی با جت آب دارای ذرات برنده

Numerical modeling of machining processes is of significance in the parametric analysis and optimization of their performance. In this paper, a finite element-based model of abrasive waterjet (AWJ) cutting of a ductile material is presented with the help of an explicit, nonlinear finite element method. In this model, both solid-solid interaction and fluid-structure interaction are considered. T...

Finite Element Methods for the Simulation of Waves in Composite Saturated Poroviscoelastic Media

This work presents and analyzes a collection of finite element procedures for the simulation of wave propagation in a porous medium composed of two weakly coupled solids saturated by a single-phase fluid. The equations of motion, formulated in the space-frequency domain, include dissipation due to viscous interaction between the fluid and solid phases with a correction factor in the high-freque...

Stability and Convergence of Nonconforming /AJI Finite-Element Methods

The stability and convergence of nonconforming hp finite-element methods, in particular, the mortar finite-element method and its variants, are established based on a new stability measure for these methods. Using a generalized eigenvalue analysis, estimates for this measure are computed numerically. Our numerical results demonstrate that these nonconforming methods prove to be good candidates ...
