This book is intended to provide a compilation of the state-of-the-art numerical methods for nonlinear fluid-structure interaction using the moving boundary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation. Single and two-phase viscous incompressible fluid flows are considered with the increasing complexity of structures ranging from rigid-body, linear elastic and nonlinear large deformation to fully-coupled flexible multibody system. This book is unique with regard to computational modeling of such complex fluid-structure interaction problems at high Reynolds numbers, whereby various coupling techniques are introduced and systematically discussed. The techniques are demonstrated for large-scale practical problems in aerospace and marine/offshore engineering.

This book also provides a comprehensive understanding of underlying unsteady physics and coupled mechanical aspects of the fluid-structure interaction from a computational point of view. Using the body-fitted and moving mesh formulations,the physical insights associated with structure-to-fluid mass ratios (i.e., added mass effects), Reynolds number, large structural deformation, free surface, and other interacting physical fields are covered. The book includes the basic tools necessary to build the concepts required for modeling such coupled fluid-structure interaction problems, thus exposing the reader to advanced topics of multiphysics and multiscale phenomena.

About the Author

Dr. Rajeev K. Jaiman is currently an Associate Professor and NSERC/Seaspan Industrial Chair in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada. An aeronautical engineer by training, his research concentrates on high-fidelity multiphysics modeling and data-driven computing, with emphasis on large-scale computations of fluid-solid and fluid-fluid interface problems. Prior to his current appointment at UBC, he was an assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the National University of Singapore (NUS). Before joining NUS, he was the Director of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Development at Altair Engineering, Inc., Mountain View, California. The CFD technologies that Dr. Jaiman has developed are routinely used in marine/offshore, wind turbine, nuclear reactors, automotive and aerospace industries. Dr. Jaiman earned his first degree in Aerospace Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai. He received his master's and doctorate degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). He has authored/co-authored more than 150 journals papers and conference proceedings and serves as an expert reviewer for numerous journals and books. He is currently an Associate Editor of ASME-OMAE Journal, a senior member of AIAA and members of ASME, SNAME, USACM, APS, AAM, and SIAM.

Dr. Vaibhav Joshi is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus, Goa, India. His research focuses on high-fidelity computational modeling of fluid-structure interaction. Prior to his current association with BITS, he was a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at The University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada. He was in-charge of the Computational Multiphysics Laboratory at UBC and worked on developing flexible multibody fluid-structure interaction framework for bio-inspired flying vehicles. Before joining as a post-doc, he carried out his doctoral studies at the National University of Singapore (NUS) and worked as a research engineer at the Keppel-NUS Corporate Laboratory. There, he developed a computational framework to model two-phase fluid-structure interaction, motivated by the coupled offshore vessel-riser system subjected to turbulent ocean current and free surface waves. He received his Bachelor of Technology degree in Mechanical Engineering from Vellore Institute of Technology University, Vellore, India.

Right of cancellation

If you are a consumer you can cancel the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION

Statutory Right to cancel

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Kennys Bookstore, The Museum at Tall Timbers, 2707 Olney - Sandy Spring Road, 20832, Olney, Maryland, U.S.A., +353 91709350, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Kennys Bookstore, The Museum at Tall Timbers, 2707 Olney - Sandy Spring Road, 20853, Olney, Maryland, U.S.A., +353 91709350, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of cancellation

The right of cancellation does not apply to:

the delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
the supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not cancel it once delivery had started.
