PICS Seminar: “Simulating solids like fluids: A fully Eulerian approach to fluid-structure interaction”
Abstract: Fluids and solids tend to be addressed using distinct computational perspectives. Solid deformation is most commonly simulated with Lagrangian finite-element methods, whereas fluid flow is amenable to Eulerian-frame approaches such as finite difference and finite volume methods. Problems that mix fluid and solid behaviors simultaneously present interesting numerical challenges. Here we focus on […]
