Can OpenFOAM v4.0 Do FSI?

m_ridzon · July 29, 2017, 08:52

I'm using OpenFoam v4.0. Does anybody know if it can do Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) problems? More specifically, will it do 1-way FSI or perhaps 2-way FSI also? If it is able to do FSI, is the ability there natively with the initial installation or do I need to install anything additional to gain the capability?

Thanks,
M Ridzon

Hi Matt,

are you asking for a co simulation FSI (Fluid(OF) <-> Solid(FEM-code)) http://www.precice.org/codes/ http://empire.st.bv.tum.de/
or FSI purely in OF (Fluid(OF) <-> Solid(OF))

The latter. OF <-> OF. Thanks for pointing me to that link.

Hi Matt,
just wanted to mention the OF workshop 2017 (well it is extend version)

Philip,

Thanks for the information. From reading the short paper, it sounds like this technology is nascent and not yet available in OpenFoam. And it sounds like plans are underway to develop it soon and make it natively available in OpenFoam. Is my understanding correct?

Regards,
Matt

The link for the paper is broken, does anyone has an updated link?

Um, not sure which link you're talking about, since there are several mentioned above in this thread.

This link still works for OpenFOAM-to-OpenFOAM FSI:

Elvis mentioned this link also, but it is expired since it pertained to a conference that already took place:
