摘要:This work consists of the development of a partitioned 3D computational code for non linear geometrical fluid-structure interaction analysis using the Finite Element Method. The fluid solver is explicit and its time integration is based on characteristics, which introduces automatically stabilizing terms on stream direction. The Navier-Stokes equations are written in the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) description, in order to accept moving boundaries and coupling with Lagrangian shell elements.
