摘要
A robust immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method(IB-LBM)is proposed to simulate fluid-structure interaction(FSI)problems in this work.Compared with the conventional IB-LBM,the current method employs the fractional step technique to solve the lattice Boltzmann equation(LBE)with a forcing term.Consequently,the non-physical oscillation of body force calculation,which is frequently encountered in the traditional IB-LBM,is suppressed greatly.It is of importance for the simulation of FSI problems.In the meanwhile,the no-slip boundary condition is strictly satisfied by using the velocity correction scheme.Moreover,based on the relationship between the velocity correction and forcing term,the boundary force can be calculated accurately and easily.A few test cases are first performed to validate the current method.Subsequently,a series of FSI problems,including the vortex-induced vibration of a circular cylinder,an elastic filament flapping in the wake of a fixed cylinder and sedimentation of particles,are simulated.Based on the good agreement between the current results and those in the literature,it is demonstrated that the proposed IB-LBMhas the capability to handle various FSI problems effectively.
