- We present a framework for adaptive finite element computation of turbulent flow and fluid structure interaction, with focus on general algorithms that allow for complex geometry and deforming domains. We give basic models and finite element discretization methods, adaptive algorithms and strategies for efficient parallel implementation. To illustrate the capabilities of the computational framework, we show a number of application examples from aerodynamics, aero-acoustics, biomedicine and geophysics. The computational tools are free to download open source as Unicorn, and as a high performance branch of the finite element problem solving environment DOLFIN, both part of the FEniCS project.

- As a step toward building a more complete model of voice production mechanics, we assess the feasibility of a fluid-structure simulation of the vocal fold mechanics in the Unicorn incompressible Unified Continuum framework. The Unicorn framework consists of conservation equations for mass and momentum, a phase function selecting solid or fluid constitutive laws, a convection equation for the phase function and moving mesh methods for tracking the interface, and discretization through an adaptive stabilized finite element method. The framework has been validated for turbulent flow for both low and high Reynolds numbers and has the following features: implicit turbulence modeling (turbulent dissipation only occurs through numerical stabilization), goal-oriented mesh adaptivity, strong, implicit fluid-structure coupling and good scaling on massively parallel computers. We have applied the framework for turbulent fluid-structure interaction simulation of vocal folds, and present initial results. Acoustic quantities have been extracted from the framework in the setting of an investigation of a configuration approximating an exhaust system with turbulent flow around a flexible triangular steel plate in a circular duct. We present some results of the investigation as well as results of the framework applied to other problems.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present developments in the Unicorn-HPC framework for unified continuum mechanics, enabling adaptive finite element computation of fluid-structure interaction, and an overview of the larger FEniCS-HPC framework for automated solution of partial diffential equations of which Unicorn-HPC is a part. We formulate the basic model and finite element discretisation method and adaptive algorithms. We test the framework on a 2D model problem consisting of a flexible beam in channel flow, and to illustrate the capabilities of the computational framework, we show two application examples from industry and medicine. We simulate a flexible mixer plate in turbulent flow in an exhaust system where the target output is aeroacoustic quantities. The second example is a self-oscillating vocal fold configuration, where the ultimate goal is to predict how the voice is affected by physiological changes from aerodynamics. Here we give the displacement signal of a point on the folds.
