Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems are of great interest, due to their applicability in science and engineering. However, the coupling between large fluid domains and small moving solid walls presents numerous numerical difficulties and, in some configurations, where the thickness of the solid wall can be neglected, one can consider membrane models, which are derived from the Koiter shell equations with a reduction of the computational cost of the algorithm. With this assumption, the FSI simulation is reduced to the fluid equations on a moving mesh together with a Robin boundary condition that is imposed on the moving solid surface. In this manuscript, we are interested in the study of inverse FSI problems that aim to achieve an objective by changing some design parameters, such as forces, boundary conditions, or geometrical domain shapes. We study the inverse FSI membrane model by using an optimal control approach that is based on Lagrange multipliers and adjoint variables. In particular, we propose a pressure boundary optimal control with the purpose to control the solid deformation by changing the pressure on a fluid boundary. We report the results of some numerical tests for two-dimensional domains to demonstrate the feasibility and robustness of our method.

The Impact

We investigate the impact of different boundary conditions on the flow field developing around a tilted rectangular cylinder. We are mainly interested in analyzing the changes in force coefficients and in the vortex shedding Strouhal number due to the proximity of the cylinder to a bottom plate (placed at various distances from the cylinder) at different angles of attack. The angle of attack ranges between −30° and +30° and the cylinder elevation above the bottom wall is varied between almost zero and 200 mm. The effects of the different boundary conditions on the vortex shedding phenomenon are investigated by considering the Strouhal number of the vortex shedding as the key controlling parameter. The experimental results mimicking the unbounded conditions (relative large elevation of the cylinder above the solid wall) are in close agreement with those already found in literature. On the contrary, remarkable differences occur when the elevation of the cylinder is decreased. A large body of experimental results is related to the small elevation conditions at different attack angles, where the presence of the wall has a non-negligible effect on the behavior of the force coefficients and Strouhal number of the vortex shedding.

ABSTRACT: This work presents the dynamic response of a lock subjected to the horizontal S0E component of the El Centro earthquake for empty and completely filled water chamber cases, by coupled fluid-structure analysis. Initially, the lock was studied by approximation, considering it similar to the case of a double piston coupled to a two-dimensional acoustic cavity (tank), representing a simplified analytical model of the fluid-structure problem. This analytical formulation can be compared with numerical results, in order to qualify the responses of the ultimate problem to be investigated. In all the analyses performed, modeling and numerical simulations were done using the finite element method (FEM), supported by the commercial software ANSYS.
