Dam break through an elastic gate
Simulation of a dam break through an elastic gate
The PFEM (Particle-FEM) with a PSPG formulation is used to simulate the water
The gate is modeld using an hyperelastic Mooney-Rivlin model
The coupling is managed by
CUPyDO
, a general framework for fluid-structure interaction simulation
Results are compared to the the experimental measures of Antoci et al. (2007).
