Hi:
I recently finished some work in Ansys Fluent using a UDF with the macro DEFINE_GRID_MOTION. I've been looking at the free cfd codes (all the ones in CAElinux 2013) and trying to see if any of them have an equivalent capability to DEFINE_GRID_MOTION. Something where i can have a body which deforms in a way which I define. Does anyone know of a code with similar capability and if so what would be some key words i could search to learn more.
Best,
Peter

It would have to be defined as a separate boundary condition in openFOAM. To be used as one of the inputs to something like pimpleDymfoam
