Benchmark Model Refresher Fluid (Spectral Elements) Soil (Brick Elements) Output: Displacements of Dam & Cavitation Region Assume: Plane Strain (constraints reduce DOF) Only looking at seismic excitation in the x-direction Linear elastic brick elements Dam (Brick Elements) Silent Boundary

A Quick Note on Perfectly Matched Layers n The main concept is to surround the computational domain at the infinite media boundary with a highly absorbing boundary layer. u Outgoing waves are attenuated. Wave amplitude n This boundary layer can be made of the same finite elements. n Formulation of the matrices are the same method for both computational domain and the boundary layer u There are just different properties

A Quick Note on Perfectly Matched Layers (PML) n Going from the frequency domain to the time domain is a real pain!!! n Can be done see “Perfectly Matched Layers for Transient Elastodynamics of Unbounded Domains.” U. Basu and A. Chopra

Localized Frame Concept n Frames are connected to adjacent partitions by force/flux fields u Mathematically: Lagrange multipliers “gluing” the state variables of the partition models to that of the frame. u Lagrange multipliers at the frame are related by interface constraints and obey Newton’s Third Law.

Variational Principles and Lagrange Multipliers n Lagrange Method to derive the equilibrium equations of a system of constrained rigid bodies in Newtonian Mechanics Formulation. 1- Treat the problem as if all bodies are entirely free and formulate the virtual work by summing up the contributions of each free body. 2- Identify constraint equations and multiply each by an indeterminate coefficient. Then take the variation and add to the virtual work of the free bodies to yield the total virtual work of the system. 3- The sum of all terms which are multiplied by the same variation are equated to zero. These equations will provide all the conditions necessary for equilibrium.

Set Sail for the Future n Find bug in the Dam-Sandstone Interface n Develop structure-fluid interaction via localized interfaces with nonmatching meshes. n Develop structure-soil interaction via localized interfaces spanning a range of soil media. n Develop a localized interface for cavitating fluid and linear fluid. n Develop rules for multiplier and connector frame discretization. n Implement and assess the effect of dynamic model reduction techniques.

Fluid Structure Interaction with Lagrange Multipliers n Same Concept as with Dam- Sandstone Interface n Separate the two systems n Apply interface Constraint n However, remember the displacement of the fluid is expressed in terms of the gradient of a scalar function
22
Fluid Structure Interaction with Lagrange Multipliers n Can the interface constraint be written? n What happens with the gradient?
23
Fluid Structure Interaction with Lagrange Multipliers n Another concern is the variational formulation of the fluid system. u If you remember we ended up with fluid equations of the form: n Can the variation of the fluid be written?
