Texto completoAnalysis and development of numerical tools to simulate Computational Wind Engineering (CWE) problems is the main goal of the present work. The isothermal flow is analyzed using the Navier-Stokes equations for viscous fluids and a mass conservation equation obtained according to the pseudo-compressibility assumption. Turbulent flows are simulated employing Large Eddy Simulation (LES) with the classical and dynamic Smagorinsky’s models for subgrid scales. Two Taylor-Galerkin models for the flow analysis are investigated: the explicit two-step scheme and the explicit-iterative scheme. The Finite Element Method (MEF) is employed for spatial discretizations using the eight-node hexahedrical isoparametric element with one-point quadrature. Fluid-structure interaction problems are analyzed with a coupling model based on a conservative partitioned scheme. The Finite Element Method (MEF) is employed for spatial discretizations using the eight-node hexahedrical isoparametric element with one-point quadrature. Fluid-structure interaction problems are analyzed with a coupling model based on a conservative partitioned scheme. Subcycling and nonmatching meshes for independent discretizations of the fluid and structure domains are also available. The structure is considered as a deformable body constituted by a linear elastic material with geometrically nonlinear effects. The FEM is used for the spatial discretization of the structure as well. Eight-node hexahedrical isoparametric elements with one-point quadrature and hourglass control are adopted in this process. The implicit Newmark algorithm within the framework of the α-Generalized method is employed for the numerical integration of the dynamic equilibrium equation. An arbitrary Lagrangean-Eulerian (ALE) description is adopted for the kinematic description of the flow when deformable structures are analyzed. Numerical and experimental examples are simulated in order to demonstrate the accuracy of the developed algorithms. Concluding remarks and suggestions for future works are pointed out in the last chapter of the present work.

Texto completoMuch of the vibration in fast moving vehicles is caused bydistributed random excitation, such as turbulent flow and roadroughness. Piping systems transporting fast flowing fluid isanother example, where distributed random excitation will causeunwanted vibration. In order to reduce these vibrations andalso the noise they cause, it is important to have accurate andcomputationally efficient prediction methods available.
The aim of this thesis is to present such a method. Thefirst step towards this end was to extend an existing spectralfinite element method (SFEM) to handle excitation of planetravelling pressure waves. Once the elementary response tothese waves is known, the response to arbitrary homogeneousrandom excitation can be found.
One example of random excitation is turbulent boundary layer(TBL) excitation. From measurements a new modified Chase modelwas developed that allowed for a satisfactory prediction ofboth the measured wall pressure field and the vibrationresponse of a turbulence excited plate. In order to model morecomplicated structures, a new spectral super element method(SSEM) was formulated. It is based on a waveguide formulation,handles all kinds of boundaries and its elements are easily putinto an assembly with conventional finite elements.
Finally, the work to model fluid-structure interaction withanother wave based method is presented. Similar to the previousmethods it seems to be computationally more efficient thanconventional finite elements.

Texto completoThis thesis presents a space-time extended finite element method (space-time XFEM) based on the Heaviside enrichment for transient problems with moving interfaces, and its applications to the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis. The Heaviside-enriched XFEM is a promising method to discretize partial differential equations with discontinuities in space. However, significant approximation errors are introduced by time stepping schemes when the interface geometry changes in time. The proposed space-time XFEM applies the finite element discretization and the Heaviside enrichment in both space and time with elements forming a space-time slab. A simple space-time scheme is introduced to integrate the weak form of the governing equations. This scheme considers spatial intersection configuration at multiple temporal integration points. Standard spatial integration techniques can be applied for each spatial configuration. Nitsche's method and the face-oriented ghost-penalty method are extended to the proposed space-time XFEM formulation. The stability, accuracy and flexibility of the space-time XFEM for various interface conditions including moving interfaces are demonstrated with structural and fluid problems. Moreover, the space-time XFEM enables analyzing complex FSI problems using moving interfaces, such as FSI with contact. Two FSI methods using moving interfaces (full-Eulerian FSI and Lagrangian-immersed FSI) are studied. The Lagrangian-immersed FSI method is a mixed formulation of Lagrangian and Eulerian descriptions. As solid and fluid meshes are independently defined, the FSI is computed between non-matching interfaces based on Nitsche's method and projection techniques adopted from computational contact mechanics. The stabilized Lagrange multiplier method is used for contact. Numerical examples of FSI and FSI-contact problems provide insight into the characteristics of the combination of the space-time XFEM and the Lagrangian-immersed FSI method. The proposed combination is a promising method which has the versatility for various multi-physics simulations and the applicability such as optimization.

Texto completoThe following work consist in the study of the vibroacoustic response of a structure submerged in fluid, under a turbulent boundary layer flow, the response of the structure is driven by the low wavenumber behaviour, for a small Mach number. This work aims at providing better means of predicting the noise radiated in such setups, mainly regarding stealthiness of ships and submarines and noise radiated by outer structures.A numerical modal analysis based on the (u,p,φ) formulation available in the finite element software Code_Aster is performed. The pressure induced by the boudary layer is then described as a sum of plane waves and several harmonical analysis are performed on the reduced problem, projected on the (u,p,φ) modal basis, one for each term of the sum. This allows us to account for the fluid-structure interaction (inertial and acoustic) in confined and infinite fluid domains. Most numerical models found in scientific papers are making the assumption of a light fluid, or a fluid loaded plate, thus not taking clearly into account the fluid-strucure interaction or only the inertialpart. Here the interaction due to the acoustic field radiated by the plate is fully accounted for.The validity of the proposed numerical method is assesed and numerical results are compared to data obtained from an experimental setup used within a hydrodynamic tunnel. Numerically, a good reproduction of the behaviour of the plate is obtained, both in terms of displacement and spectral levels. The acoustic levels are also compared to their numerical counterparts at the position of the transducer. Moreover, an experimantal analysis is performed, for backward and forward steps of height smaller than the thickness of the boundary layer, in order to investigate the influence of such configurations on the boundary layer excitation and on the vibroacoustic response

Texto completoThe present work aims at developing a numerical solver for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems, especially those encountered in biology such as blood circulation in valved veins. Blood flow is investigated using anatomically and physically relevant models. The first aspect of FSI problems is related to management of algorithm stability. An Eulerian monolithic formulation based on the characteristic method unconditionally achieves stability and introduce a first order in time approximation with two distinct hyperelastic material models. The second aspect deals with between-solid domain contact such as that between valve leaflets during closure and in the closed state over a finite surface, which avoid vcusp tilting and back flow. A contact algorithm is proposed and validated using benchmarks. Computational study of blood flow in valved veins is investigated, once the solver was verified and validated. The 2D computational domain comprises a single basic unit or the ladder-like model of a deep and superficial veins communicating by a set of perforating veins. A 3D mesh of the basic unit was also built. Three-dimensional computation relies on high performance computing. Blood flow dynamics is strongly coupled to vessel wall mechanics. Deformable vascular walls of large veins and arteries are composed of three main layers (intima, media, and adventitia) that consist of composite material with a composition specific to each layer. In the present work, the wall rheology is assumed to be a Mooney-Rivlin material

Texto completoBei der Hörwahrnehmung eines Klangs spielen viele komplexe Prozesse zusammen. Der Schlüsselprozess, die Umwandlung mechanischer Schwingungsbewegung in elektrische Signale, findet in den Haarbündeln im Innenohr statt. Diese Haarbündel sind hoch entwickelte mechanosensitive Organellen, bestehend aus vielen nahe beieinander stehenden Stereozilien umgeben von Flüssigkeit. Die beträchtliche Viskosität dieser Flüssigkeit führt zur Energiedissipation und zur Schwingungsdämpfung, was im Gegensatz zur bekannten hohen Empfindlichkeit und der ausgezeichneten Frequenzselektivität der Hörwahrnehmung steht. Um die Komponenten des Haarbündelsystems in ihrem funktionalen Zusammenspiel besser zu verstehen, bedarf es eines wirklichkeitsgetreuen Modells unter Einbeziehung der Wechselwirkung zwischen Flüssigkeit und Struktur. Mit dieser Arbeit wird ein neuer Ansatz vorgestellt, um die Mechanik der Fluid-Struktur-Wechselwirkung im Innenohr zu analysieren. Da die Bewegungen bei der normalen Mechanotransduktion wesentlich kleiner als die geometrischen Abmessungen sind, ist es möglich, das Verhalten von Fluid und Struktur in Form der Verschiebungsvariable in einem linearen einheitlichen System von Gleichungen ausreichend genau zu beschreiben. Dieses System von partiellen Differentialgleichungen wird mit der Finite-Elemente-Methode gelöst. Basierend auf experimentell ermittelten Daten vom Haarbündel des Ochsenfrosches wird ein detailliertes Modell erstellt, welches sowohl die Interaktion mit der umgebenden Flüssigkeit als auch die koppelnde Flüssigkeit in den engen Spalten zwischen den einzelnen Stereozilien erfasst. Die experimentellen Daten sind Ergebnisse von hochauflösenden interferometrischen Messungen bei physiologisch relevanten Bewegungsamplituden im Bereich von unter einem Nanometer bis zu mehreren Dutzend Nanometern, sowie über einen breiten Frequenzbereich von einem Millihertz bis hundert Kilohertz. Das Modell erlaubt die Berechnung der auftretenden viskosen Widerstände aus der numerischen Analyse der verschiedenen beobachteten Bewegungsmoden. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass durch die Gruppierung zu einem Bündel der Gesamtwiderstand drastisch reduziert ist, im Vergleich zur Summe der Widerstände einzelner Stereozilien, die sich individuell und unabhängig voneinander bewegen. Die einzelnen Stereozilien in einem Haarbündel sind durch elastische Strukturen mechanisch miteinander verbunden: Die Energie des Schalls wird durch schräg angeordnete sogenannte Tiplinks auf die mechanotransduktiven Kanäle übertragen, wohingegen horizontale Querverbindungen die Stereozilien direkt koppeln. Während der Haarbündelauslenkung verursachen die Tiplinks zusätzlichen Widerstand durch stark dissipative Relativbewegungen zwischen den Stereozilien. Die horizontalen Querverbindungen unterdrücken diese Bewegungen und sind dafür verantwortlich, dass sich das Haarbündel als Einheit bewegt und der Gesamtwiderstand gering bleibt. Die Steifigkeit der Stereozilien und der Verbindungselemente sowie deren Geometrie sind in dem Modell sorgfältig angepasst, um eine Übereinstimmung mit den Beobachtungen aus verschiedenen Experimenten zu erzielen. Als Referenz dienen Steifigkeits- und Widerstandsmessungen, sowie Kohärenzmessungen für die gegenüberliegenden Außenkanten des Bündels, die jeweils mit und ohne Tiplinks durchgeführt wurden. Darüberhinaus sind die Ergebnisse durch den Vergleich mit experimentell beobachteten Relativbewegungen validiert, die das Haarbündel infolge von sinusförmiger Anregung bei Distorsionsfrequenzen zeigt. Diese haben ihren Ursprung in dem nichtlinearen Prozess des öffnens von Ionenkanälen. Das entwickelte Modell eines Haarbündels liefert neue Einblicke in den Schlüsselprozess der auditiven Wahrnehmung. Zur Behandlung von Problemen der Fluid-Struktur-Wechselwirkungen bei kleinen Amplituden hat sich der hier ausgearbeitete Ansatz als effizient und zuverlässig erwiesen

Texto completoThis work deals with the development of numerical methods for compressible flow simulation with application to the interaction of fluid flows and structural bodies.
First, we develop numerical methods based on multidimensional upwind residual distribution (RD) schemes. Theoretical results for the stability and accuracy of the methods are given. Then, the RD schemes for unsteady problems are extended for computations on moving meshes. As a second approach, cell centered and vertex centered finite volume (FV) schemes are considered. The RD schemes are compared to FV schemes by means of the 1D modified equation and by the comparison of the numerical results for scalar problems and system of Euler equations. We present a number of two and three dimensional steady and unsteady test cases, illustrating properties of the numerical methods. The results are compared with the theoretical solution and experimental data.
In the second part, a numerical method for fluid-structure interaction problems is developed. The problem is divided into three distinct sub-problems: Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Solid Mechanics and the problem of fluid mesh movement. The problem of Computational Solid Mechanics is formulated as a system of partial differential equations for an anisotropic elastic continuum and solved by the finite element method. The mesh movement is determined using the pseudo-elastic continuum approach and solved again by the finite element method. The coupling of the problems is achieved by a simple sub-iterative approach. Capabilities of the methods are demonstrated on computations of 2D supersonic panel flutter and 3D transonic flutter of the AGARD 445.6 wing. In the first case, the results are compared with the theoretical solution and the numerical computations given in the references. In the second case the comparison with experimental data is presented.

Texto completoDans le contexte de lutte contre les nuisances sonores, cette thèse porte sur le développement de méthodes de résolution efficaces par éléments finis, pour des problèmes de vibroacoustique interne avec interfaces dissipatives, dans le domaine des basses fréquences. L’étude se limite à l’utilisation de solutions passives telles que l’intégration de matériaux poreux homogènes et isotropes, modélisés par une approche fondée sur la théorie de Biot-Allard. Ces modèles étant coûteux en terme de résolution, un des objectifs de cette thèse est de proposer une approche modale pour la réduction du problème poroélastique, bien que l’adéquation d’une telle approche avec le comportement dynamique des matériaux poreux soit à démontrer.Dans un premier temps, la résolution de problèmes couplés élasto-poro-acoustiques par sous-structuration dynamique des domaines acoustiques et poreux est établie. L’approche modale originale proposée pour les milieux poroélastiques, ainsi qu’une procédure de sélection des modes significatifs, sont validées sur des exemples 1D à 3D.Une deuxième partie présente une méthode combinant l’utilisation des modèles réduits précédemment établis avec une procédure d’approximation de solution par approximants de Padé. Il est montré qu’une telle combinaison offre la possibilité d’accroître les performances de la résolution (allocation mémoire et ressources en temps de calcul).Un chapitre dédié aux applications permet d’évaluer et comparer les approches sur un problème académique 3D, mettant en valeur leurs performances encourageantes. Afin d’améliorer les méthodes établies dans cette thèse, des perspectives à ces travaux de recherche sont apportées en conclusion.

Texto completoA method to couple smoothed particle hydrodynamics and finite elements methods for nonlinear transient fluid–structure interaction simulations by adopting different time-steps depending on the fluid or solid sub-domains is proposed. These developments were motivated by the need to simulate highly non-linear and sudden phenomena that take into acount solid impacts and hence require the use of explicit time integrators on both sub-domains (explicit Newmark for the solid and Runge–Kutta 2 for the fluid). However, due to critical time-step required for the stability of the explicit time integrators in, it becomes important to be able to integrate each sub-domain with a different time-step while respecting the features that a previously developed mono time-step coupling algorithm offered. For this matter, a dual-Schur decomposition method originally proposed for structural dynamics was considered, allowing to couple time integrators of the Newmark family with different time-steps with the use of Lagrange multipliers

Texto completoAbstract: This project proposes to model, analyze and compare the effects of fluid flow inside an elastic tube. These effects, in turn, will be caused by a variation of pressure in this fluid. Therefore, through the physical and mechanical properties of the tube and fluid was calculated the displacement of the tube wall, flow and velocity of the fluid. The Modeling intends to compare numerically an arrangement that aims to simulate a heartbeat with characteristics similar to the human heart. Through of building two cylindrical geometries representing different domains (structure and fluid) that were engaged in its interface, it was possible to study the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) using the commercial software ANSYS, thereby obtaining a three-dimensional study. The results showed that the displacement of the interface fluid-structure occurred simultaneously, thereby confirming the correct application of the command FSIN. The fluid is considered incompressible and Newtonian and is governed by the Navier-Stokes equations. The walls of the structure are modeled from the Hooke's Law. Finally, a numerical solution is developed using the Finite Element Method

Texto completoThis work is divided in three parts. Initially, it is presented a stabilized Finite Element Method formulation to solve fluid flow problems governed by the incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations. This formulation was implemented in a computer code and validated throughout several numeric simulations. Some well-known finite elements with different pairs of velocity/pressure approximations, as well as some other less popular elements, were investigated and their performance compared. The second part describes the Structural Problem formulation. This formulation is able to simulate nonlinear dynamic problems involving large displacements and finite strains during long period of time. In the final part of this work, it is proposed a Fluid-Structure Interaction method based on an immersed interface approach in opposition to classical ALE (Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian) approaches. Generalized Finite Elements, together with Lagrange Multipliers, are used to provide velocity and pressure discontinuities on the fluid domain across the immersed interface. To couple both fluid and structural problems, an implicit staggered scheme is adopted, which allows the easy implementation of already developed black box computer codes.

Texto completoThe Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) effects are of great importance for many multi-physical problems in academic researches as well as in engineering sciences. Various types of numerical simulation approaches may be used to investigate the FSI problems in order to get more reliable conception and to avoid unexpected disasters. In this work, the fluid sub-domain is simulated by a hybrid mesh-less method (SPH-ALE), and the structure is discretized by the Finite Element (FE) method. As the fluid is considered as a set of particles, one can easily track the fluid structure interface. An energy-conserving coupling strategy is proposed for transient fluid-structure interaction problems where different time integrators are used for each sub-domain: 2nd order Runge-Kutta scheme for the fluid and Newmark time integrator for the solid. By imposing a normal velocity constraint condition at the interface, this proposed coupling method ensures that neither energy injection nor energy dissipation will occur at the interface so that the interface energy is rigorously zero during the whole period of numerical simulation. This coupling method thus ensures that the coupling simulation shall be stable in time, and secondly, the numerical simulation will converge in time with the minimal convergence rate of all the time integrators chosen for each sub-domain. The proposed method is first applied to a mono-dimensional piston problem in which we verify that this method does not degrade the order of accuracy in time of the used time integrators. Then we use this coupling method to investigate the phenomena of propagation of shock waves across the fluidstructure interface. A good agreement is observed between the numerical results and the analytical solutions in the 1-D shock wave propagation test cases. Finally, some multi-dimensional examples are presented. The results are compared with the ones obtained by other coupling approaches

A two-dimensional fluid dynamic Eulerian code is developed based on the CBS algorithm characteristic based split. Then, the computational code is modified to be coupled with a Lagrangean structures dynamical code by using the arbitrary Lagrangean Eulerian description (ALE). At the end, the coupling is made with a positional nonlinear geometrical structural dynamics code based on the finite element method.

Texto completoThe theoretical basis of piezoelectric finite element method (FEM), and its application in piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer modelling is presented. Among these applications we have the calculation of resonance and antiresonance frequencies, vibration modes, piezoelectric coupling coefficient, admittance curve and transient analysis of piezoelectric structure excited by a short pulse. By means of piezoelectric FEM the influence of variation of piezoelectric constant with radius is analysed. It is discussed three kind of functions (linear, cosinoidal and Gaussian). This technique is called apodization. The acoustic filed generated by the transducer operating in continuous wave (CW) was calculated by using FEM applied to acoustic, considering the fluid-structure coupling. The study of wave propagation in liquids is started by using FEM, analyzing the waves generated by a plane piston in contact with the fluid, excited by a short pulse. For each case discussed above, all boundary conditions and hypothesis assumed in the construction of finite element models are discussed. Although the models considered are circular transducers, the concepts acquired can be expanded to other geometries. The vibrational modes were visualized by means of a laser interferometry technique (ESPI), and the admittance curves were measured by using an impedometer. These results were compared with the FEM results, and the models precision was discussed.

Texto completoFluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) describes a wide variety of industrial problems arising in mechanical engineering, civil engineering and biomechanics. In spite of the available computer performance and the actual maturity of computational fluid dynamics and computational structural dynamics, several key issues still prevent accurate FSI simulations.Two main approaches for the simulation of FSI problems are still gaining attention lately: partitioned and monolithic approaches. Results in the literature show that the partitioned approach is accurate and efficient but some instabilities may occur depending on the ratio of the densities and the complexity of the geometry. Monolithic methods are still of interest due to their capability to treat the interaction of the fluid and the structure using a unified formulation. In fact it makes the build up of a FSI problem easier as the mesh do not have to fit the geometry of the solids and the transfers are treated naturally.The software Thost has been created based on these analyzes. Thost is a 3D aerothermal numerical software. It has been developped for the numerical simulation of industrial processes like the heating in industrial furnaces as well as quenching. Its target is to model numericaly the thermal history of the industrial pieces in their environment without using any transfer coefficient. However the computational costs are still high and therefore the software is not fully efficient from an industrial point of view to simulate, analize and improve complex processes. All the work in this PhD thesis has been done to reduce the computational costs and optimize the accuracy of the simulations in Thost based on innovatives numerical methods such as dynamic anisotropic mesh adaptation, stabilized finite elements methods and immersing the objects directly from their Computer Aided Design files

Texto completoProblems involving fluid-structure interaction are challenging for engineering and, while involving two different materials with distinct physical properties, they require a compatible mathematical description for both solid and fluid domain in order to allow the coupling. Thus, this work introduces a formulation, under Lagrangian description, for the solution of solid, incompressible fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interaction (FSI). In FSI problems, the structure usually presents large displacements thus making mandatory a geometric non-linear analysis. Considering it, we adopt a position based formulation of the finite element method (FEM) which has been shown to be very robust when applied to large displacement solid dynamics. For the fluid mechanics problem it is well known that a Lagrangian description eliminates the convective terms from the Navier-Stokes equations and thus, no stabilization technique is required. However, the difficulty is then transferred to the need of efficient re-meshing, mesh quality and external boundary identification techniques, since the fluid presents no resistance to shear stresses and may deform indefinitely. In this sense, we employ a combination of finite element and particle methods in which the particle interaction forces are computed by mean of a finite element mesh which is re-constructed at every time step. Free surface flows are simulated by a boundary recognition technique enabling large domain distortions or even the particles separation from the main domain, representing for instance a water drop. Finally, the fluid-structure coupling is simplified due to the Lagrangian description adopted for both materials, with no need for extra adaptive mesh-moving technique for the fluid computational domain to follow the structure motion.

Texto completoIn this work, a wave finite element (WFE) method is proposed to predict the sound radiation of finite axisymmetric fluid-filled pipes immersed in an external acoustic fluid of infinite extent, The Sommerfeld radiation condition is taken into account by means of a perfectly matched layer (PML) around the external fluid. Within the WFE framework, the fluid-filled pipe, the surrounding fluid and the PML constitute a multiphysics waveguide that is discretized by means of a periodic finite element mesh, and is treated as an assembly of identical subsystems of small length. Wave modes are computed from the FE model of a multi-physics subsystem and used as a representation basis to assess the vibroacoustic behavior of the finite waveguide at a low computational cost. Numerical experiments are carried out in the cases of axisymmetric pipes of either homogeneous or multi-layered crosssections, The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approach are dearly highlighted in comparison with the conventional FE method

Texto completoIn der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein miniaturisiertes Energiegewinnungssystem entwickelt, das unter Verzicht auf rotierende Komponenten kinetische Strömungsenergie in elektrische Energie umwandelt. Die Funktion dieses Wandlers basiert auf der sogenannten wirbelinduzierten Vibration. Derartige Systeme besitzen unter anderem das Potenzial, drahtlose Sensornetzwerke zur Erfassung von Messdaten in Gas-, Öl- oder Wassertransportsystemen mit Energie zu versorgen zu können. In der Arbeit wird der theoretische Hintergrund der wirbelinduzierten Vibration untersucht und darauf basierend werden Fluid-Struktur-Wechselwirkungssimulationen zur Strukturoptimierung durchgeführt in deren Ergebnis eine theoretische Verbesserung der Effizienz des Wandlers um ein Mehrfaches erreicht wird, die auch praktisch bestätigt wird. Unter Berücksichtigung der Simulations- und Optimierungsergebnisse wurden eine Reihe von Demonstratoren gefertigt, die auf einem selbst konstruierten Prüfstand getestet wurden. Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Leistungsfähigkeit des Wandlers wird ein zusätzlicher elektromagnetischer Generator vorgeschlagen und damit ein Multi-Methoden-Demonstrator technisch realisiert. Die Demonstratoren arbeiten in strömender Luft bereits bei Geschwindigkeiten von 2 m/s und erreichen bei 3,6 m/s ihre maximale Effizienz. Die erreichten Ergebnisse ordnen sich im Vergleich mit denen aus entsprechenden Publikationen vorn ein und werden ausführlich diskutiert

Texto completoUndulatory wave-based self-propulsion like used by fish may be a suitable alternative to traditional propeller-based propulsion for underwater vehicles. The use of undulatory propulsion implies a certain degree of structural flexibility will be present, hence consideration of both fluid and structure is critical to assessing the behavior of this form of propulsion. In this thesis, a novel segregated fluid-structure interaction (FSI) coupling scheme is developed between a finite element structure solver and a 2D unsteady panel method fluid solver with discrete vortex particle wake approach. The different components of the FSI solver are validated first individually and then as a whole using the case of a flexible two-dimensional plate in pure heave. The scaling law relating input swimming variables and the resulting swimming speed is then reproduced and the importance of drag to these relations is elucidated.A self-propelled swimmer whose beam-like structure and rigid body motions are resolved is then examined under the influence of an imposed bending moment distribution. A curvature-based, delayed proprioceptive feedback is then applied to deform the self-propelled swimmer. Feedback based swimming was found to be distinct from active, imposed bending moment swimming. A simplified one degree of freedom model was found to qualitatively describe the feedback swimmer behavior. A swimmer using muscle-like elements is then assessed to determine the relative importance of different muscle properties with the aim of identifying if the non-linear behavior of muscles is beneficial to self-propulsion. Finally, a three-dimensional, thin plate in pure heave is examined with the aim of determining to what extent an 3D panel method can be used in lieu of computationally expensive viscous flow approaches self-propulsion analysis in 3D

Texto completoIn this work the dy6namic response of a marine riser due to vortex shedding is numerically investigated. The riser is divided in two-dimensional sections along the riser length. The Discrete Vortex Method is employed for the assessment of the hydrodynamic forces acting on these two-dimensional sections. The hydrodynamic sections are solved independently, and the coupling among the sections is taken into account by the solution of the structure in the time domain by the Finite Element Method. The numerical results are compared with results obtained experimentally. Parallel processing is employed to improve the performance of the method. The simulations are carried out through a master-slave approach using MPI Message Passing Interface to exploit the parallelism. Scalability of the algorithm is shown and discussed. This work represents the development of a simulator that effectively allows the dynamic analysis of a riser with representative characteristics and dimensions of real field conditions, with a feasible computational cost for its use as an engineering tool. This is obtained by means of the parallel processing technique, together with an efficient CFD solution of the flow with de Discrete Vortex Method and the solution of the structure with the Finite Element Method.

Texto completoThis work consists of the development of computational tools for nonlinear geometric fluid-shell interaction analysis using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The fluid solver is explicit and its time integration based on characteristics. The computational code is able to simulate the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flows written in the Eulerian description as well as in the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) description, enabling movements prescription for the fluid mesh. The structure is modeled in a total Lagrangian description, using a FEM formulation to deal with geometrical nonlinear dynamics of shells based on the minimum potential energy theorem written regarding nodal positions and generalized unconstrained vectors, not displacements and rotations, avoiding the use of large rotation approximations. Two partitioned coupling models are developed. The first model, ideal for simulations where the displacements scale is not very large compared to the fluid domain, is based on the ALE description and the coupling between the two different meshes is done by mapping the fluid boundary nodes local positions over the shell elements and vice-versa, avoiding the need for matching fluid and shell nodes. The fluid mesh is adapted using a simple approach based on shell nodal positions and velocities. The second model, ideal for problems with large scales of displacements such as inflatable structures, is based on immersed boundary and consists of a robust level-set based approach that integrates the Lagrangian shell finite and the Eulerian finite element high speed fluid flow solver, with no need for mesh adaptation, where the fluid representation relies on a fixed unstructured mesh larger or equal to the initial fluid domain and the fluid-shell interface inside the fluid mesh is tracked with level sets of a boundary signed distance function. Both models are tested with numerical examples, showing efficiency and robustness. Finally, as a suggestion for future development of this research, we started studies relatives to B-Spline functions. The use of this kind of functions should solve stability problems related to spurious oscillations due to the use of Lagrange polynomials for representing discontinuities.

Texto completoThis doctoral thesis focuses on the calculation by the finite element method of the dynamic behavior of prestressed elastic tanks containing an internal liquid with a free surface. We consider that the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the incompressible internal fluid on the flexible walls of the tank causes large displacements, thus leading to a geometric non-linear equilibrium state. The change of stiffness related to this prestressed state induces a shift in the resonance frequencies of the coupled linear vibration problem. The main objective of the work is therefore to estimate, through precise and efficient numerical approaches, the influence of geometric nonlinearities on the hydroelastic behavior of the reservoir/internal liquid system around different equilibrium configurations. The methodology developed is carried out in two stages. The first one consists in calculating the non-linear static state by a total Lagrangian finite element approach.The action of the fluid on the structure is modelled here by hydrostatic following forces. The second step is the calculation of linearized coupled vibrations. In particular, an original reduced order model is proposed to limit the calculation costs associated with the estimation of the added mass effect. Finally, various examples are proposed and compared with results from the literature (from numerical simulations or experimental tests) to show the effectiveness and validity of the different numerical approaches developed in this work

Texto completoThis thesis studies the issue of the overall safety of structures built of heterogeneous and pore-saturated materials under extreme loads in application to fluid-structure interaction problems, such as the dam-reservoir interaction. We propose a numerical model of interaction capable of predicting main tendencies and overall behavior of pore-saturated dam structure interacting with the reservoir in failure analyses of practical interest. The proposed numerical model is first presented in two-dimensional (2D) framework and later extended to three-dimensional (3D) framework. We consider the structure built of porous cohesive material. We assume that the external fluid in interaction with the structure acts as a source of pore saturation. We model the response of the pore-saturated structure with the coupled discrete beam lattice model based on Voronoi cell representation of domain with inelastic Timoshenko beam finite elements enhanced with additional kinematics in terms of embedded strong discontinuities acting as cohesive links. The coupling between the solid phase and the pore fluid is handled with Biot’s porous media theory, and Darcy’s law governing the pore fluid flow. The numerical consideration of internal coupling results with an additional pressure-type degree of freedom placed at each node of the Timoshenko beam finite element, which is later used at the fluidstructure interface. The confined conditions met for external fluid placed in the reservoir enable the modeling of external fluid motion with the acoustic wave theory. For the numerical representation of the external fluid limited to small (irrotational) motion, we choose a Lagrangian formulation and the mixed displacement/pressure based finite element approximation. The end result are the displacement and pressure degrees of freedom per node of external fluid finite elements, which allows for the issue of the fluid-structure interface to be solved in an efficient and straightforward manner by directly connecting the structure and external fluid finite elements at common nodes. As a result, all computations can be performed in a fully monolithic manner. All numerical implementations and computations are performed with the research version of the computer code FEAP (Finite Element Analysis Program). The proposed numerical models of structure, external fluid and ultimately numerical model of interaction are validated in the linear elastic regime of structure response by comparing computed results against reference values obtained either with analytical solutions or continuum models. The numerical simulations in the nonlinear regime of structure response are performed with the aim to demonstrate the proposed coupled discrete beam lattice model capabilities to capture complete macro-scale response and failure mechanisms in pore-saturated structures. Finally, the proposed numerical model of interaction ability to deal with the progressive localized failure of a dam structure built of porous cohesive material under damreservoir interaction for a particular loading program was tested. To account for the temperature effects, the thermal coupling is introduced in the numerical model of the structure
