3d Simulation Of Wind Turbine Rotors At Full Scale. Part Ii: Fluid–Structure Interaction Modeling With Composite Blades, Y. Bazilevs, Ming-Chen Hsu, J. Kiendel, R. Wuchner, K. U. Bletzigner
Ming-Chen Hsu
In this two-part paper, we present a collection of numerical methods combined into a single framework, which has the potential for a successful application to wind turbine rotor modeling and simulation. In Part 1 of this paper we focus on: 1. The basics of geometry modeling and analysis-suitable geometry construction for wind turbine rotors; 2. The fluid mechanics formulation and its suitability and accuracy for rotating turbulent flows; 3. The coupling of air flow and a rotating rigid body. In Part 2, we focus on the structural discretization for wind turbine blades and the details of the fluid–structure interaction computational …

High-Performance Computing Of Wind Turbine Aerodynamics Using Isogeometric Analysis, Ming-Chen Hsu, Ido Akkerman, Yuri Bazilevs
Ming-Chen Hsu
In this article we present a high-performance computing framework for advanced flow simulation and its application to wind energy based on the residual-based variational multiscale (RBVMS) method and isogeometric analysis. The RBVMS formulation and its suitability and accuracy for turbulent flow in a moving domain are presented. Particular emphasis is placed on the parallel implementation of the methodology and its scalability. Two challenging flow cases were considered: the turbulent Taylor–Couette flow and the NREL 5 MW offshore baseline wind turbine rotor at full scale. In both cases, flow quantities of interest from the simulation results compare favorably with the reference …
Blood Vessel Tissue Prestress Modeling For Vascular Fluid–Structure Interaction Simulation, Ming-Chen Hsu, Yuri Bazilevs
Blood Vessel Tissue Prestress Modeling For Vascular Fluid–Structure Interaction Simulation, Ming-Chen Hsu, Yuri Bazilevs
Ming-Chen Hsu
In this paper we present a new strategy for obtaining blood vessel tissue prestress for use in fluid–structure interaction (FSI) analysis of vascular blood flow. The method consists of a simple iterative procedure and is applicable to a large class of vascular geometries. The formulation of the solid problem is modified to account for the tissue prestress by employing an additive decomposition of the second Piola–Kirchhoff stress tensor. Computational results using patient-specific models of cerebral aneurysms indicate that tissue prestress plays an important role in predicting hemodynamic quantities of interest in vascular FSI simulations.

Conventional finite shell element formulations use rotational degrees of freedom to describe the motion of the fiber in the Reissner–Mindlin shear deformable shell theory, resulting in an element with five or six degrees of freedom per node. These additional degrees of freedom are frequently the source of convergence difficulties in implicit structural analyses, and, unless the rotational inertias are scaled, control the time step size in explicit analyses. Structural formulations that are based on only the translational degrees of freedom are therefore attractive. Although rotation-free formulations using C0 basis functions are possible, they are complicated in comparison to their C1 …
