Micro Abstract:
We present a new and completely parallel approach for fluid-structure interaction, which includes also contact between the elastic structures. Our approach is inspired by the fictitious domain method and makes intensive use of variational transfer between the solid and the fluid and on the possibly contacting surfaces between solids. We present the discretization, the setup of the variational transfer, and efficient methods for the solution of the arising non-linear problems. We present 2D and 3D benchmarks, and a tricuspid heart valve.
