Fluid-Structure Interaction

Janice

I have been working on comparing water wave loads(force) on partially submerged circular cylinders ,my objective is to compare the numerical results for wave loads with those of experimental values.

I have been working on such a flow visualisation system where I can estimate the velocity and vorticity around the submerged cylinder at all over the fluid-domain and I wish to estimate the fluid force (due to water waves) on the cylinder making use of this velocity and vorticity data.Is there any software available in any public-domain that could solve the above problem for me?

PS:= please suggest me any literature on the above problem
