Parallel Analysis System for Fluid–Structure Interaction with Free-Surfaces Using ADVENTURE_Solid and LexADV_EMPS

In this chapter, we present a parallel analysis system for fluid–structure interaction (FSI) analysis with free-surfaces. It is based on a method that uses the moving-particle semi-implicit/simulation (MPS) method for flow computations and the finite element (FE) method for structural computations. The MPS-FE method is an efficient and robust approach for FSI problems involving free-surface flow. To develop the system presented herein, we use two existing open-source software modules: ADVENTURE_ Solid, a large-scale FE solver for structural computations; and LexADV_ EMPS, a library for large-scale MPS computations for free-surface flow. The explicitly represented polygon (ERP) wall boundary model employed in LexADV_ EMPS is accurate and stable, and it expresses wall boundaries as a set of arbitrarily shaped triangular polygons with appropriately imposed boundary conditions. Thus, when the ERP is used, in both the fluid and the structure computations, the fluid–structure interfaces are matched, and therefore, preprocessing of the data for FSI analysis is greatly facilitated. We demonstrate the applicability of the developed system by solving a dam-break problem with an elastic obstacle.
