Large deformation fluid structure interaction - advances in ALE methods and new fixed grid approaches

This contribution focusses on computational approaches for fluid structure interaction problems from several perspectives. Common driving force is the desire to handle even the large deformation case in a robust, efficient and straightforward way. In order to meet these requirements main subjects are on the one hand necessary improvements on coupling issues as well as on Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) approaches. On the other hand, we discuss pros and cons of avail-able fixed grid approaches and start the development of new such approaches. Some numerical examples are provided along the paper.     «
