Abstract:A numerical investigation is performed here using a NURBS-based finite element formulation applied to classical Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) problems. Model capabilities related to refinement techniques are analyzed using a finite element formulation with NURBS (non uniform rational B-splines) basis functions, where B-splines and low-order Lagrangian elements can be considered as particular cases. An explicit two-step Taylor-Galerkin model is utilized for discretizat… Show more
