Venous valves are bicuspidal valves that ensure that blood in veins only flows back to the heart. To prevent retrograde blood flow, the two intraluminal leaflets meet in the center of the vein and occlude the vessel. In fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations of venous valves, the large structural displacements may lead to mesh deteriorations and entanglements, causing instabilities of the solver and, consequently, the numerical solution to diverge. In this paper, we propose an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) scheme for FSI simulations designed to solve these instabilities. A monolithic formulation for the FSI problem is considered and, due to the complexity of the operators, the exact Jacobian matrix is evaluated using automatic differentiation. The method relies on the introduction of a staggered in time velocity %in the discretization scheme to improve stability, and on fictitious springs to model the contact force of the valve leaflets. Since the large structural displacements may compromise the quality of the fluid mesh as well, a smoother fluid displacement, obtained with the introduction of a scaling factor that measures the distance of a fluid element from the valve leaflet tip, guarantees that there are no mesh entanglements in the fluid domain. To further improve stability, a Streamline Upwind Petrov Galerkin (SUPG) method is employed. The proposed ALE scheme is applied to a 2D model of a venous valve. The presented simulations show that the proposed method deals well with the large structural displacements of the problem, allowing a reconstruction of the valve behavior in both the opening and closing phase.

Dispersion of low-density rigid particles with complex geometries is ubiquitous in both natural and industrial environments. We show that while explicit methods for coupling the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and Newtons equations of motion a
re often sufficient to solve for the motion of cylindrical particles with low density ratios, for more complex particles - such as a body with a protrusion - they become unstable. We present an implicit formulation of the coupling between rigid body dynamics and fluid dynamics within the framework of the immersed boundary projection method. Similarly to previous work on this method, the resulting matrix equation in the present approach is solved using a block-LU decomposition. Each step of the block-LU decomposition is modified to incorporate the rigid body dynamics. We show that our method achieves second-order accuracy in space and first-order in time (third-order for practical settings), only with a small additional computational cost to the original method. Our implicit coupling yields stable solution for density ratios as low as $10^{-4}$. We also consider the influence of fictitious fluid located inside the rigid bodies on the accuracy and stability of our method.
In this paper, we develop a new mass conservative numerical scheme for the simulations of a class of fluid-structure interaction problems. We will use the immersed boundary method to model the fluid-structure interaction, while the fluid flow is gove
rned by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The immersed boundary method is proven to be a successful scheme to model fluid-structure interactions. To ensure mass conservation, we will use the staggered discontinuous Galerkin method to discretize the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The staggered discontinuous Galerkin method is able to preserve the skew-symmetry of the convection term. In addition, by using a local postprocessing technique, the weakly divergence free velocity can be used to compute a new postprocessed velocity, which is exactly divergence free and has a superconvergence property. This strongly divergence free velocity field is the key to the mass conservation. Furthermore, energy stability is improved by the skew-symmetric discretization of the convection term. We will present several numerical results to show the performance of the method.
Cable subsystems characterized by long, slender, and flexible structural elements are featured in numerous engineering systems. In each of them, interaction between an individual cable and the surrounding fluid is inevitable. Such a Fluid-Structure I
nteraction (FSI) has received little attention in the literature, possibly due to the inherent complexity associated with fluid and structural semi-discretizations of disparate spatial dimensions. This paper proposes an embedded boundary approach for filling this gap, where the dynamics of the cable are captured by a standard finite element representation $mathcal C$ of its centerline, while its geometry is represented by a discrete surface $Sigma_h$ that is embedded in the fluid mesh. The proposed approach is built on master-slave kinematics between $mathcal C$ and $Sigma_h$, a simple algorithm for computing the motion/deformation of $Sigma_h$ based on the dynamic state of $mathcal C$, and an energy-conserving method for transferring to $mathcal C$ the loads computed on $Sigma_h$. Its effectiveness is demonstrated for two highly nonlinear applications featuring large deformations and/or motions of a cable subsystem and turbulent flows: an aerial refueling model problem, and a challenging supersonic parachute inflation problem. The proposed approach is verified using numerical data, and validated using real flight data.
Bayesian calibration is widely used for inverse analysis and uncertainty analysis for complex systems in the presence of both computer models and observation data. In the present work, we focus on large-scale fluid-structure interaction systems chara
cterized by large structural deformations. Numerical methods to solve these problems, including embedded/immersed boundary methods, are typically not differentiable and lack smoothness. We propose a framework that is built on unscented Kalman filter/inversion to efficiently calibrate and provide uncertainty estimations of such complicated models with noisy observation data. The approach is derivative-free and non-intrusive, and is of particular value for the forward model that is computationally expensive and provided as a black box which is impractical to differentiate. The framework is demonstrated and validated by successfully calibrating the model parameters of a piston problem and identifying the damage field of an airfoil under transonic buffeting.
We investigate a multirate time step approach applied to decoupled methods in fluid and structure interaction(FSI) computation, where two different time steps are used for fluid and structure respectively. For illustration, the multirate technique is
tested by the decoupled beta-scheme. Numerical experiments show that the proposed approach is stable and retains the same order accuracy as the original single time step schemes, while with much less computational expense.
