An Aeroelastic Solver Integrating Reformulated-Vortex-Particle and Finite-Element Methods across Non-Conforming Interfaces

Neeraj Balachandar, A. Padmaprabhan, Vishnu R. Unni

We present $\text{VarFlExI}$ (Variable Fidelity Unsteady Flow-FEniCS Exchange Interface), a modular aeroelastic solver for modeling two-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI) of f…
