This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a unified study of dynamically coupled systems involving a rigid body and an ideal fluid flow from the perspective of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. It compiles theoretical investigations on the topic of dynamically coupled systems using a framework grounded in Kirchhoff’s equations. The text achieves a balance between geometric mechanics, or the modern theories of reduction of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems, and classical fluid mechanics, with a special focus on the applications of these principles. Following an introduction to Kirchhoff’s equations of motion, the book discusses several extensions of Kirchhoff’s work, particularly related to vortices. It addresses the equations of motions of these systems and their Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations. The book is suitable to mathematicians, physicists and engineers with a background in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics and theoretical fluid mechanics. It includes a brief introductory overview of geometric mechanics in the appendix.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dynamics of bodies containing fluids is a subject of long-standing im portance in many technical applications. The stability of motion of such bodies, in particular, has been the subject of study by Soviet engineers and applied mathematicians who have brought their fuH powers of analysis to bear on the problem, and have succeeded in developing a very weH-founded body of theory. It is difficult to find a more striking example anywhere of the application of the classical methods of analytical mechanics, together with more modern concepts of stability analysis, in such a comprehensive and elegent form as that presented by Profs. Moiseyev and Rumyantsev. Therefore, it is highly significant that this recent monograph has been trans lated and made available to the English-speaking community. H. NORMAN ABRAMSON San Antonio July, 1967 v Foreword During the last 15-20 years, problems of dynamics of rigid bodies with fluid-filled cavities have increasingly attracted the attention of scientists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses various passive and active techniques for controlling unsteady flow dynamics and associated coupled mechanics of fluid-structure interaction. Coupled multiphysics and multidomain simulations are emerging and challenging research areas, which have received significant attention during the past decade. One of the most common multiphysics and multidomain problems is fluid-structure interaction (FSI), i.e., the study of coupled physical systems involving fluid and a structure that have a mechanical influence on each other. Regardless of the application area, the investigation toward modeling of fluid-structure interaction and the underlying mechanisms in dealing with coupled fluid-structure instability with real-world applications remains a challenge to scientists and engineers. This book is designed for students and researchers who seek knowledge of computational modeling and control strategies for fluid-structure interaction. Specifically, this book provides a comprehensive review of the underlying unsteady physics and coupled mechanical aspects of the fluid-structure interaction of freely vibrating bluff bodies, the self-induced flapping of thin flexible structures, and aeroelasticity of shell structures. Understanding flow-induced loads and vibrations can lead to safer and cost-effective structures, especially for light and high-aspect ratio structures with increased flexibility and harsh environmental conditions. Using the body-fitted and moving mesh formulations, the physical insights associated with structure-to-fluid mass ratios, Reynolds number, nonlinear structural deformation, proximity interference, near-wall contacts, free-surface, and other interacting physical fields are covered in this book. In conjunction with the control techniques, data-driven model reduction approaches based on subspace projection and deep neural calculus are covered for low-dimensional modeling of unsteady fluid-structure interaction.

Download or read book Fluid structure Interactions written by Thomas Richter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-26 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book starts by introducing the fundamental concepts of mathematical continuum mechanics for fluids and solids and their coupling. Special attention is given to the derivation of variational formulations for the subproblems describing fluid- and solid-mechanics as well as the coupled fluid-structure interaction problem. Two monolithic formulations for fluid-structure interactions are described in detail: the well-established ALE formulation and the modern Fully Eulerian formulation, which can effectively deal with problems featuring large deformation and contact. Further, the book provides details on state-of-the-art discretization schemes for fluid- and solid-mechanics and considers the special needs of coupled problems with interface-tracking and interface-capturing techniques. Lastly, advanced topics like goal-oriented error estimation, multigrid solution and gradient-based optimization schemes are discussed in the context of fluid-structure interaction problems.
Download or read book Coupled Simulation of Deformable Solids Rigid Bodies and Fluids with Surface Tension written by Craig Allen Schroeder and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis considers the numerical simulation of a variety of phenomena, particularly rigid bodies, deformable bodies, and incompressible fluids. We consider each of these simulations types in isolation, addressing challenges specific to each. We also address the problem of monolithic two-way coupling of each of these phenomena. First we address the stability of rigid body simulation with large time steps. We develop an energy correction for orientation evolution and another correction for collisions. In practice, we have found these two corrections to be sufficient to produce stable simulations. We also explore a simple scheme for rigid body fracture that is as inexpensive as prescoring rigid bodies but more flexible. Next we develop a method for simulating deformable but incompressible solids. Many constitutive models for deforming solids, such as the neo-Hookean model, break down in the incompressible limit. Simply enforcing incompressibility per tetrahedron leads to locking, where the mesh non-physically resists deformation. We present a method that uses a pressure projection similar to what is commonly used to simulate incompressible solids and apply it to deforming solids. We also address the complications that result from the interaction of this new force with contacts and collisions. Then, we turn to two coupling problems. The first problem is to couple deformable bodies to rigid bodies. We develop a fully-unified time integration scheme, where individual steps like collisions and contact are each fully two-way coupled. The resulting coupling scheme is monolithic with fully coupled linear systems. This leads to a robust and strongly coupled simulation framework. We use state-of-the-art integrators for rigid bodies and deformable bodies as the basis for the coupling scheme and maintain the ability to handle other phenomena, such as articulation and controllers on the rigid bodies and incompressibility on the deformable bodies. We follow this up by developing a scheme for coupling solids to incompressible fluids. The method handles both deformable bodies and rigid bodies. Unlike many existing methods for fluid structure interaction, which often typically lead to indefinite linear systems, the developed scheme results in a symmetric and positive definite (SPD) linear system. In addition to strongly coupling solids and fluids, the method also strongly couples viscosity with fluid pressure. This allows it to accurately treat simulations with high viscosity or where the primary coupling between solid and fluid is through fluid viscosity rather than fluid pressure. The method can be interpreted as a means of converting symmetric indefinite KKT systems with a particular form into SPD systems. Finally, we propose a method for applying implicit Lagrangian forces to an Eulerian Navier-Stokes simulation. We utilize the SPD framework to produce an SPD system with these implicit forces. We use this method to apply implicit surface tension forces. This implicit surface tension treatment reduces the tight time step restriction that normally accompanies explicit treatments of surface tension.
