Variational characterization of eigenvalues of a non-symmetric eigenvalue problem governing elastoacoustic vibrations

Markus Stammberger, Heinrich Voss (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Small amplitude vibrations of an elastic structure completely filled by a fluid are considered. Describing the structure by displacements and the fluid by its pressure field one arrives at a non-selfadjoint eigenvalue problem. Taking advantage of a Rayleigh functional we prove that its eigenvalues can be characterized by variational principles of Rayleigh, minmax and maxmin type.

Finite element analysis of sloshing and hydroelastic vibrations under gravity

Alfredo Bermúdez, Rodolfo Rodríguez (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

This paper deals with a finite element method to solve fluid-structure interaction problems. More precisely it concerns the numerical computation of harmonic hydroelastic vibrations under gravity. It is based on a displacement formulation for both the fluid and the solid. Gravity effects are included on the free surface of the fluid as well as on the liquid-solid interface. The pressure of the fluid is used as a variable for the theoretical analysis leading to a well posed mixed...

Approximation of the vibration modes of a plate coupled with a fluid by low-order isoparametric finite elements

Erwin Hernández (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We analyze an isoparametric finite element method to compute the vibration modes of a plate, modeled by Reissner-Mindlin equations, in contact with a compressible fluid, described in terms of displacement variables. To avoid locking in the plate, we consider a low-order method of the so called MITC (Mixed Interpolation of Tensorial Component) family on quadrilateral meshes. To avoid spurious modes in the fluid, we use a low-order hexahedral Raviart-Thomas elements and a non conforming...

Analysis of a coupled BEM/FEM eigensolver for the hydroelastic vibrations problem

Similarity:

A coupled finite/boundary element method to approximate the free vibration modes of an elastic structure containing an incompressible fluid is analyzed in this paper. The effect of the fluid is taken into account by means of one of the most usual procedures in engineering practice: an , which is posed in terms of boundary integral equations. Piecewise linear continuous elements are used to discretize the solid displacements and the fluid-solid interface variables. Spectral convergence...

Acceleration of a fixed point algorithm for fluid-structure interaction using transpiration conditions

Simone Deparis, Miguel Angel Fernández, Luca Formaggia (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

In this work, we address the numerical solution of fluid-structure interaction problems. This issue is particularly difficulty to tackle when the fluid and the solid densities are of the same order, for instance as it happens in hemodynamic applications, since fully implicit coupling schemes are required to ensure stability of the resulting method. Thus, at each time step, we have to solve a highly non-linear coupled system, since the fluid domain depends on the unknown displacement...

On a constrained minimization problem arising in hemodynamics

João Janela, Adélia Sequeira (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Experimental evidence collected over the years shows that blood exhibits non-Newtonian characteristics such as shear-thinning, viscoelasticity, yield stress and thixotropic behaviour. Under certain conditions these characteristics become relevant and must be taken into consideration when modelling blood flow. In this work we deal with incompressible generalized Newtonian fluids, that account for the non-constant viscosity of blood, and present a new numerical method to handle fluid-rigid...
