  1. 16. Influence of Fluid Structure Interaction on a Concrete Dam during Seismic Excitation : -Parametric analyses of an Arch Dam-Reservoir-Foundation system

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Rikard Hellgren; [2014]
    Keywords : seismic; fluid-structure interaction; arch dam; concrete; finite element analysis; jordbävning; fluid-struktur interaction; valvdamm; betong; finit element analys;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to investigate how Fluid-Structure interaction is included in numerical earthquake analyses of dams. The base for this project is theme A from the 12th international benchmark workshop on numerical analysis of dams, which was held in October 2013. READ MORE

  3. 17. Fluid Dynamics of Phonation.

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Rutvika Acharya; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at presenting the studies conducted using computational modeling for understanding physiology of glottis and mechanism of phonation. The process of phonation occurs in the larynx, commonly called the voice box, due to the self-sustained vibrations induced in the vocal folds by the airflow. READ MORE

  4. 18. Experimental Investigation of Shock Wave-Boundary Layer Interaction on a Generic Oscillating Bump

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Anthony Costanzo; [2014]
    Keywords : shock wave; boundary layer; fluid structure interaction; aeroelasticity;

    Abstract : The presented research investigates the effects of shock wave boundary layer interaction on the unsteady pressure response of the surface of an oscillating structure. A simplified structure, a 2D prismatic bump, located in a straight channel is used to better understand the bending flutter phenomenon. READ MORE

  5. 19. Wind turbine dynamic - application to foundations

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Cyril Bailly; [2014]
    Keywords : Wind turbine dynamic; Foundation; Finite element analysis;

    Abstract : These latest years, the green energy is highlighted and new technologies appeared. It is the case for wind turbines.

The use of new material enables the design of wind turbine with an impressive height, more and more flexible, inducing significant dynamic forces. READ MORE

  6. 20. Fluid Structure Interaction Modeling of the Dynamic of a Semi Submerged Buoy

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Shatha Hameed Hajwal; Hamza Zeidan Nasser; [2013]
    Keywords : COMSOL Multiphysics; wave energy converter; Dynamic characteristic; Submerged body; Finite Element method FE ; SDOF; ALE.;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a study of buoy systems for wave’s energy by focusing on the development of a model in which modeling of a wave energy conversation is in operation. Throughout the thesis, the buoyancy and motion of the submerged body has been used to describe the wave-buoy interaction. READ MORE
