W241005 Computational Technique for Fluid-Structure Interactions toward Innovative Medical and Engineering Applications
Tomohiro SAWADA · The Proceedings of Mechanical Engineering Congress Japan · 2013
This paper presents advanced computer simulation techniques for nonlinear fluid-structure interaction problems. An interface-tracking method based on an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) finite element mesh technique and an interface-capturing method based on an extended finite element method (X-FEM) and Lagrange-multiplier method are presented, with several applications associated with material and engineering research divisions. The applications are also associated with and inspire to several medical applications.
