es-fsi
The CFD Expert System tool for fluid-structure interaction (FSI)
es-fsi is a new methodology for solving fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems using STAR-CD. Commercial FEM software is used to generate the mass, damping and stiffness matrices required to solve the transient structural dynamics problem. These matrices are then used by es-fsi to solve for the deformations of the structure during the STAR-CD analysis. Finally, an optional post-processing step uses the FEM software to solve for the stresses within the structure.
