The fluid-structure interaction analysis such as a static aeroelastic analysis requires the result of each analysis as an input to the other analysis. Usually the grids for the fluid analysis and the structural analysis are different, so the results should be transformed properly for each other. The Infinite Plate Spline(IPS) and the Thin Plate Spline(TPS) are used in interpolating the displacement and the pressure. In this study, such interpolation methods are compared with kriging which provides a precise response surface. The static aeroelastic analysis is performed for the supersonic flow field with shock waves and the pressure field is interpolated by the TPS and kriging. The TPS shows tendency to weaken the shock strength, whereas kriging preserves the shock strength.

The micro drill bit automatic regrinding in-line system is a system that refurbishes drill bits used in a PCB manufacturing process. This system is able to refurbish drill bits with a minimum size of ø0.15-0.075mm that have previously been discarded. Beyond the conventional manual cleaning process using ultrasound, this system adopts a water jet cleaning system, making it capable of cleaning drill bits with a minimum size of ø0.15-0.075mm. This paper analyses various contact pressures applied to the surface of drill bits depending on the shooting pressure of the cleaning device and fluid velocity in order to optimize the nozzle location and to detect structural instability caused by the contact pressures.

Thin fabric-based yacht sails have a cambered shape to generate lift force; however, their shape can be easily deformed by wind pressure and also affected by the deformation of the mast. These deformations can change the airflow characteristics over the sail. Therefore, Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) analysis is needed to evaluate the sail force precisely. In this study, airflow over the deformed sail and rig was studied using FSI. Elastic deformation of the sail and rig was obtained by an aerodynamic calculation under dynamic pressure loading on the sail surface. The effects of rig deformation on the aerodynamic performance of the sail were examined according to the rig type and mast flexibilities. As a result, the changes of lift force for a fractional type rig with a thin mast section were more significant than with a masthead rig.

This paper presents a method for assessing the dynamic responses of gravity-based structures (GBS) under various seismic loads, with a focus on fluid-structure-ground interactions. Models of GBSs and their surrounding environments were developed, incorporating interaction effects among the structure, seawater, and seabed. Dynamic responses of the GBS subjected to three seismic loads-Chi-Chi, Northridge01, and Northridge02-were calculated, with consideration of both horizontal and vertical accelerations, as well as displacements. Parametric studies indicated that the primary factors affecting the dynamic responses of GBS were seismic loads characterized by significant input forces and accelerations. The frictional force on the ground had minimal impact on the horizontal and vertical displacements of the GBS. Weight emerged as a critical factor in anchoring the GBS to the ground and minimizing vertical accelerations and displacements.

Growing concerns about environmental pollution have led to an increase in the demand for compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles in recent years. CNG vehicles are equipped with a cylinder valve installed in a high-pressure vessel to control the CNG flow. The cylinder valve must meet high quality safety standards because the pressure vessel stores high-pressure CNG. Therefore, safety evaluation of the cylinder valve is necessary to ensure the safety of CNG vehicles. In this study, fluid-structure interaction analysis for the structural integrity of the cylinder valve were conducted using a commercial finite element analysis code(ANSYS WORKBENCH V14). The CFD analysis was performed using a steady-state technique according to the inlet and outlet pressures in order to predict the pressure distribution. Structural analysis was performed by a static structure technique at the maximum working pressure to evaluate the structural integrity of the cylinder valve. From the results, the safety factor of the valve component is between 1.57 and 21.5.

This paper examines the ice cover effects on the seismic response of concrete gravity dam-reservoir-foundation interaction systems subjected to a horizontal earthquake ground motion. ANSYS program is used for finite element modeling and analyzing the ice-dam-reservoir-foundation interaction system. The ice-dam-reservoir interaction system is considered by using the Lagrangian (displacementbased) fluid and solid-quadrilateral-isoparametric finite elements. The Sariyar concrete gravity dam in Turkey is selected as a numerical application. The east-west component of Erzincan earthquake, which occurred on 13 March 1992 in Erzincan, Turkey, is selected for the earthquake analysis of the dam. Dynamic analyses of the dam-reservoir-foundation interaction system are performed with and without ice cover separately. Parametric studies are done to show the effects of the variation of the length, thickness, elasticity modulus and density of the ice-cover on the seismic response of the dam. It is observed that the variations of the length, thickness, and elasticity modulus of the ice-cover influence the displacements and stresses of the coupled system considerably. Also, the variation of the density of the ice-cover cannot produce important effects on the seismic response of the dam.

An analytical method for the free vibration of two circular plates coupled with an inviscid and compressible fluid is developed by the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The fluid is bounded by a rigid cylindrical vessel and two circular plates with an unequal thickness and diameter. It was found that the theoretical results could predict well the fluid-coupled natural frequencies with an excellent accuracy when compared with the finite element analysis results. As the fluid thickness increases or the plate thickness difference increases, an abrupt curve veering in the natural frequency loci of the neighboring modes and drastic changes in the corresponding mode shapes are observed. The mode localization frequently appears in the higher modes and in the wide gap between the plates because of a decrease in the fluid coupling owing to the fluid dispersion effect.

In this study, performance analyses have been conducted for a 5MW class wind turbine blade model. Advanced computational analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD) and computational structural dynamics(CSD) has been developed in order to investigate detailed dynamic responsed of wind turbine blade. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with K-${\epsilon}$ turbulence model are solved for unsteady flow problems of the rotating turbine blade model. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the Newmark direct integration method is used for computing the coupled aeroelastic governing equations of the 3D turbine blade for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. Predicted aerodynamic performance considering structural deformation effect of the blade show different results compared to the case of rigid blade model.

While the structural safety assessment of Cargo Containment System(CCS) in membrane type LNG carriers has to be carried out in consideration of sloshing impact pressure, it is very difficult to figure out its dynamic response behaviors due to its very complex structural arrangements/materials and complicated phenomena of sloshing impact loading. For the development of its original technique, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of dynamic response behavior of CCS structure under sloshing impact pressure. In this study, for the exact understanding of dynamic response behavior of CCS structure in membrane Mark III type LNG carriers under sloshing impact pressure, its wet drop impact response analyses were carried out by using Fluid-Structure Interaction(FSI) analysis technique of LS-DYNA code, and were also validated through a series of wet drop experiments for the enhancement of more accurate shock response analysis technique. It might be thought that the structural response behaviors of impact response analysis, such as impact pressure impulses and resulted strain time histories, generally showed very good agreement with experimental ones with very appropriate use of FSI analysis technique of LS-DYNA code, finite element modeling and material properties of CCS structure, finite element modeling and equation of state(EOS) of fluid domain.
