Micro Abstract:
The co-simulation software MpCCI offers various coupling algorithms for transient multiphysical applications. For fluid-structure interactions, where the density ratio between fluid and structure is almost 1, instabilities can occur. The presented Quasi-Newton relaxation considers the coupling as a fix point problem, which is solved by the Newton method using approximations of the Jacobian. It stabilizes the co-simulation and reduces the number of iterative coupling steps per time increment.
