International Workshop on Fluid-Structure Interaction

InhaltsverzeichnisThe efficiency of algorithms, the quality of data structures, and the performance of computer hardware enables the computation of highly non-linear multi-physical problems, particularly, the interaction of fluid flows and the deformation of affected solid structures. The objective of this book is to reflect the state of the art in fluid-structure interaction presented by engineers, mathematicians and computer scientists. The content contributes to a subject which is mainly driven by the collaboration of scientists working in different disciplines. This interaction can be seen in the presented topics of, for example, blood-artery components, motion of largely deformed structures in flow channels, aero-dynamical behavior of planes, a tribune roof under wind excitation, or the cooling process in metal forming applications where only a few physical problems are mentioned. In conclusion, the authors present the progress of the highly challenging modeling aspects occurring in the field of fluid-structure interactions and the coupling schemes to combine various codes, which were presented at the International Workshop on Fluid-Structure Interaction: Theory, Numerics and Applications held in Herrsching am Ammersee, Germany, September 2008.
