Abstract

Many aerospace applications involve complex multiphysics in compressible flow regimes that are challenging to model and analyze. Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations offer a promising approach to effectively examine these complex systems. In this work, a fully coupled FSI formulation for compressible flows is summarized. The formulation is developed based on an augmented Lagrangian approach and is capable of handling problems that involve nonmatching fluid-structure interface discretizations. The fluid is modeled with a stabilized finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations of compressible flows and is coupled to the structure formulated using isogeometric Kirchhoff-Love shells. To solve the fully coupled system, a block-iterative approach is used. To demonstrate the framework's effectiveness for modeling industrial-scale applications, the FSI methodology is applied to the NASA Common Research Model (CRM) aircraft to study buffeting phenomena by performing an aircraft pitching simulation based on a prescribed time-dependent angle of attack.
