Nowadays, atomic-force microscopy plays a significant role in nanoscience and nanotechnology, and is widely used for direct measurement at atomic scale and scanning the sample surfaces. In tapping mode, the microcantilever of atomic-force microscope is excited at resonance frequency. Therefore, it is important to study its resonance. Moreover, atomic-force microscopes can be operated in fluid e...

numerical modeling of machining processes is of significance in the parametric analysis and optimization of their performance. in this paper, a finite element-based model of abrasive waterjet (awj) cutting of a ductile material is presented with the help of an explicit, nonlinear finite element method. in this model, both solid-solid interaction and fluid-structure interaction are considered. t...

Though realistic eulerian fluid simulation systems now provide believable movements, straightforward renderable surface representation, and affordable computation costs, they are still unable to deal with non-static objects in a realistic manner. Namely, objects can not have an influence on the fluid and be simultaneously affected by the fluid’s motion. In this paper, a simulation scheme for fl...

This thesis proposes a way to simulate the interaction of fluids and solids based on the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method. The interaction is facilitated by not only representing fluids with particles, but solid objects as well. Linear elastic forces are computed between neighbouring particles to create deformable objects. The animation of fully rigid objects is made possible by introduci...

Composite propellers offer high damping characteristics and corrosion resistance when compared with metal propellers. But the design of a hybrid composite propeller with the same strength of metal propeller is the critical task. For this purpose, the present paper focusses on fluid-structure interaction analysis of hybrid composite propeller with Carbon/Epoxy, R-Glass/Epoxy and S2-Glass/Epoxy t...

This work outlines a unified multi-threaded, multi-scale High Performance Computing (HPC) approach for the direct numerical simulation of Fluid-Solid Interaction (FSI) problems. The simulation algorithm relies on the extended Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (XSPH) method, which approaches the fluid flow in a Lagrangian framework consistent with the Lagrangian tracking of the solid phase. A gene...
