A robust and efficient uncertainty quantification method for coupled fluid-structure interaction problems

A robust and efficient uncertainty quantification method is presented for resolving the effect of uncertainty on the behavior of multi-physics systems. The extrema diminishing method in probability space maintains a bounded error due to the interpolation of deterministic samples at constant phase in a transonic airfoil flutter problem.

Explicit inverse distance weighting mesh motion for coupled problems

An explicit mesh motion algorithm based on inverse distance weighting interpolation is presented. The explicit formulation leads to a fast mesh motion algorithm and an easy implementation. In addition, the proposed point-by-point method is robust and flexible in case of large deformations, hanging nodes, and parallelization. Mesh quality results...

An unsteady adaptive stochastic finite elements uncertainty quantification method for fluid-structure interaction problems

Efficient uncertainty quantification using a two-step approach with chaos collocation

In this paper a Two Step approach with Chaos Collocation for efficient uncertainty quantification in computational fluid-structure interactions is followed. In Step I, a Sensitivity Analysis is used to efficiently narrow the problem down from multiple uncertain parameters to one parameter which has the largest influence on the solution. In Step...
