  4. Three field approach: basic formulation The coupled transient aeroelastic problem can then be formulated as a three-field problem: 1- the fluid 2- the structure 3- the dynamic mesh The semi-discrete equations governing this tree-way coupled problem can be written as follows are fictitious mass, damping and stiffness matrices associated with the fluid moving grid. is a transfer matrix that describes the action of the structural side of the fluid structure interface on the fluid dynamic mesh. For example, includes a particular case of the spring based mesh motion scheme Multidisciplinary Computation

  5. Three field approach: basic formulation The fluid and mesh equations are directly coupled. The fluid and structure equations are coupled by the interface conditions on The first transmission condition states that the tractions on the wet surface of the structure are in equilibrium with those on the fluid side . The second condition expresses the compatibility between the velocity fields of the structure and the fluid at the fluid/structure interface. For inviscid flows, this second equation is replaced by the slip wall boundary condition The equations governing the structure and fluid mesh motions are coupled by the continuity conditions Multidisciplinary Computation

  8. Flow Solver for Moving Meshes Time Integration A second-order accurate time-accurate implicit algorithm that is popular in CFD is the second-order backward difference scheme. A generalisation of this algorithm for dynamic mesh can be written as: where and denote some linear combination of the mesh configurations and their velocities, i.e. The following choice has been made for , denoted by , respectively, Multidisciplinary Computation

  9. Flow Solver for Moving Meshes GCL condition A sufficient condition for the previous time integrator to be mathematically consistent is to predict exactly the state of a uniform flow. This condition whic can be formulated as a Geometric Conservation Law states that This equation is satisfied only for versy special choice of which depends from the particular time integration scheme and type of grid elements adopted. A more versatile technique in order to satisfy the GCL condition consists in the computation of the defect which is used to correct the coefficient . Dual Time-Stepping Approach The basic idea of the dual time-stepping approach is to treat the unsteady problem as a steady state problem and to solve it as an artificial unsteady equation: where since the artificial time is used as a relaxation parameter to find the solution of the previously described steady problem. Special techniques in order to accelerate convergence are allowed. Multidisciplinary Computation

  10. Second Order Structural Solver The governing equation of linear dynamic equilibrium is that can be rewritten as where Time-integration from to using midpoint trapezoidal rule reads which is second order accurate in time. Note that the previous equations implies that Multidisciplinary Computation

  11. Second Order Time Accurate Staggered Procedure The second-order staggered (SOS) algorithm is built as a leap-frog scheme where the fluid sub-system is computed at half time stations while the structure sub-system is computed at full time stations . It can be summarised as follows 1- Predict the structural displacement at time 2- Update the position of the fluid grid in order to match the position that the structure whould have if it were advanced the predicted displecement . 3- Time integrate the fluid subsystem from to using dual time stepping scheme and a fluid time step . If , sub-cycle the flow solver. 4- Transfer the fluid pressure and viscous stress tensor at time to the structure and compute the corresponding induced structural loads . 5- Time integrate the structure sub-system from to by using the midpoint rule formula.

  41. Interfaces & Coupling In the past, God invented the partial differential equations. He was very proud of him. Then, the devil introduced the boundary conditions. Today, the technology can be considered to be mature when referred to single disciplines. For the solution of multidisciplinary problems, the devil is now represented by the interfaces. Jacques-Louis Lions • Correction of linear models • Linearised in time/frequency Euler & Navier-Stokes solvers • Reduced order models Fluid Structure Interaction • Methods • Linear methods are non conservative for transonic flows (nonlinear effects) • Time dependent methods are too expensive to be used for day to day design work Validation Need for dedicated and accurate experimental data sets (much more expensive & difficult to obtain than for a single discipline) Multidisciplinary Computation
