On mathematical modelling of gust response using the finite element method

Sváček, Petr, Horáček, Jaromír (2013)

Applications of Mathematics 2013

In this paper the numerical approximation of aeroelastic response to sudden gust is presented. The fully coupled formulation of two dimensional incompressible viscous fluid flow over a flexibly supported structure is used. The flow is modelled with the system of Navier-Stokes equations written in Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian form and coupled with system of ordinary differential equations describing the airfoil vibrations with two degrees of freedom. The Navier-Stokes equations are spatially discretized...

On simplicial red refinement in three and higher dimensions

Korotov, Sergey, Křížek, Michal (2013)

Applications of Mathematics 2013

We show that in dimensions higher than two, the popular "red refinement" technique, commonly used for simplicial mesh refinements and adaptivity in the finite element analysis and practice, never yields subsimplices which are all acute even for an acute father element as opposed to the two-dimensional case. In the three-dimensional case we prove that there exists only one tetrahedron that can be partitioned by red refinement into eight congruent subtetrahedra that are all similar to the original...
