Sažetak
We study a 3D fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem between an incompressible, viscous fluid modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations, and the motion of an elastic structure, modeled by the linearly elastic cylindrical Koiter shell equations, {; ; \sl allowing structure displacements that are not necessarily radially symmetric}; ; . The problem is set on a cylindrical domain in 3D, and is driven by the time-dependent inlet and outlet dynamic pressure data. The coupling between the fluid and the structure is fully nonlinear (2-way coupling), giving rise to a nonlinear, moving- boundary problem in 3D. We prove the existence of a weak solution to this 3D FSI problem by using an operator splitting approach in combination with the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian mapping, which satisfies a geometric conservation law property. We effectively prove that the resulting computational scheme converges to a weak solution of the full, nonlinear 3D FSI problem.
