In the curvilinear/immersed boundary (CURVIB) method developed by our group the background computational domain could be discretized with a curvilinear grid within which immersed bodies are treated as sharp-interface boundaries discretized with an unstructured triangular mesh (Fig. 1). The effect of moving immersed bodies is accounted for by reconstructing boundary conditions at the nodes in th...

Flood simulation is a complex problem involving large masses of fluid, soil watering, erosion and collision. We will demonstrate the flood simulation of cities were the fluid particles collide with a complex city model. For the fluid simulation we had used Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, by which we gained less expensive computation than by using other known methods of water simul...

We propose a computational method for the coupled simulation of a compressible flow interacting with a thin-shell structure undergoing large deformations. An Eulerian finite volume formulation is adopted for the fluid and a Lagrangian formulation based on subdivision finite elements is adopted for the shell response. The coupling between the fluid and the solid response is achieved via a novel ...

SUMMARY An immersed finite element Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) algorithm with an anisotropic remeshing strategy for thin rigid structures is presented in two-dimensions. The algorithm consists in remeshing only the fluid elements that are cut by the solid such that they fit the solid geometry. This approach allows to keep the initially provided fluid mesh vertexes fixed during the whole s...

This paper describes a comprehensive and high-fidelity finite element meshing approach for patient-specific arterial geometries from medical imaging data, with emphasis on cerebral aneurysm configurations. The meshes contain both the blood volume and solid arterial wall, and are compatible at the fluid-solid interface. There are four main stages for this meshing method: 1) Image segmentation an...

In this paper we detail a fast, fully-coupled, partitioned fluid–structure interaction (FSI) scheme. For the incompressible fluid, new fractional-step algorithms are proposed which make possible the fully implicit, but matrixfree, parallel solution of the entire coupled fluid–solid system. These algorithms include artificial compressibility pressure-poisson solution in conjunction with upwind v...

—This paper describes a framework for animating and controlling articulated bodies in a fluid simulation. We illustrate this approach by simulating an autonomous fish in various situations. Our little animal tries to reach a goal while its movement interacts with the fluid. Several algorithms allow the fish to automatically control its locomotion while taking into account the changing fluid for...

The flow-induced translocation of polymer chains through a microfluidic channel is investigated using particle-based Dissipative Particle Dynamics and modified Langevin Dynamics approaches. Adaptive noslip wall boundary conditions have been implemented to model fluid flow in the microfluidic channel, paying attention to controlling fluid density fluctuations. By varying the magnitude of the ext...

We consider the floating body problem in vertical plane on a large space scale. More precisely, we are interested numerical modeling of freely water such as icebergs or wave energy converters. The fluid-solid interaction is formulated using congested shallow model for fluid and Newton’s second law motion solid. make particular focus transfer between solid since it major interest production.
