Thanks > in advance. > Hi Bin Liu, You may want to look at the FSI work that Cyrill von Planta and collaborators are doing via the MOOSE library, e.g. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338446882_Modelling_of_hydro-mechanical_processes_in_heterogeneous_fracture_intersections_using_a_fictitious_domain_method_with_variational_transfer_operators In addition to that, Boyce Griffith's research group has developed an immersed boundary method with the IBAMR library (https://ibamr.github.io/) which may be of interest to you. I'm not sure what your ultimate goals are, but I would probably recommend not starting from scratch with libmesh to solve FSI, as it would likely require a lot of work... -- John _______________________________________________ Libmesh-users mailing list Libmesh-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libmesh-users
