To avoid over-damping it is best to start with the unstable solution and increase the coefficient until you approach the converged solution. The unstable solution will have oscillations that grow in...

1) The number of Coupling Iterations can vary from case to case, but it should be possible to converge just about any case in 10 or less Coupling Iteration. The key point is not to use too much...

Can you assume the min pressure of 10964.52 Pa is consistent with the MRI scan geometry? Then you could adjust your pressure levels so that you always pass a positive pressure.
For force I find it...

I'm not sure why the continuity residuals would be high. If other residuals are low then it could just be the way the residuals are normalized. The default residual normalization in Fluent is not...

To check if Fluent is initialized correct you can scroll up the Fluent transcript file and look for some output that says Fluent is reading the dat file. If you don't see this, then something went...

So yes, since the geometry is based on the MRI scan then it represents a pre-stressed geometry. Let ignore linear/non-linear material properties for now. The forces you send to System Coupling...

From the looks of the geometry this is an artery simulation. A few things to keep in mind...

What does the geometry/mesh represent? Is it probably the pre-stressed structure due to blood...

You cannot select pseudo-transient when Fluent is in transient mode. The idea is to get the transient solver to behave as close as possible to the pseudo-transient approach.

1 iteration per time...

Yes, it means to use a large time step. Typically you might choose some fraction (perhaps 20%) of the residence time of the fluid in the domain, but this can be very much case dependent. Larger...

Regarding initializing a transient FSI with steady-state FSI results....

As you found you cannot mix Transient Structural with steady-state Fluent (this is the approach used with CFX FSI). Also,...
