In most existing glaze icing models, the cables are assumed to be fixed, and water film is just run-down streams that do not reflect the complexity of the ice accretion process. To reveal the effects of in-plane motions of cable on the glaze icing process, two typical in-plane motions of aeolian vibration and galloping are taken into consideration and a mathematical water film-ice layer model is proposed for the first time. Based on the water film-ice layer model, ice accretion and water flow on the vibrating cables are studied, and key parameters of Collision Efficiency (CE), aerodynamic coefficients, and water film are evaluated by comparison with fixed cables. Moreover, by iterating the discretized mass and energy conservation equations with the computed aerodynamic coefficients, the effects of in-plane motions of the cable on water film and ice shapes are computed. The model then is verified with published experimental and numerical data. The results show that in-plane motions of the cables enlarge the windward face in dynamic forms which have certain effects on water film and ice shapes, and the model could provide accurate predictions of ice accretion.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":"131 ","pages":"Article 104229"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142707334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These two problems are further interrelated, since in the short wavelength limit (relative to the slit/plate width) the respective modes are governed by the same dispersion equation, commonly known as the Scholte–Stoneley equation. It is the Scholte-type modes that are mainly analysed in this paper. We illustrate results when the fluid is water, although the theory is valid for any Newtonian fluid. Both ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ solids are compared, with the emphasis being placed on the importance of thermo-viscoelastic effects, particularly when <em>stress relaxation</em> is considered.

The present model combines the quasi-steady theory for the galloping with the nonlinear structure-wake oscillators simulating VIV, capturing the time-varying drag and lift hydrodynamic forces with the time-averaged and fluctuating components. By placing a flexibly mounted square cylinder in uniform flow at an initial angle of incidence, the cylinder is subject to instantaneous changes in the dynamic angle of attack accounting for relative flow-structure velocities. Modelling of such features in cross-flow and in-line directions for low and high mass ratio systems extends previous studies which have mostly focused on cross-flow responses of square cylinders with high mass ratios at a zero angle of incidence. New sets of empirical coefficients governing the drag and lift fluid forces for both the quasi-steady and wake oscillator approaches are introduced by calibrating with available experimental data in the literature, applicable to predict several flow-induced vibration phenomena under arbitrary flow-structure orientations. Mathematical criteria for the onset of two- and one-dimensional galloping instability are presented, verifying the likelihood of galloping occurrence. Parametric investigations are carried out to highlight the important effects of flow incidence angle, mass-damping ratio (Scruton number) and in-line response on the prediction of galloping and VIV in comparison with experimental results. By varying the reduced velocity parameter, the present model captures key qualitative features of the dominant galloping, interfering galloping-VIV and dominant VIV through the response amplitudes, mean drift displacements, oscillation frequencies, fluid force components and motion trajectories. Contributions from in-line responses are found to be meaningful for the interfering galloping-VIV system with a low mass-damping ratio and for an asymmetric flow orientation. The present model could be further calibrated and applied to other fluid-structure interaction applications with non-circular cross-sectional geometries under omnidirectional flow directions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":"131 ","pages":"Article 104215"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142658838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These demand special considerations for accurate and efficient simulations. This paper presents an application of artificial neural networks (ANN) for the interface treatment in a coupled FSI problem employing partitioned solvers. A shallow time-series ANN (nonlinear auto-regressive model with exogenous inputs, NARX) scheme is proposed to handle the exchange of Neumann/Dirichlet information at the coupling interface. This scheme involves two interface treatment models that were developed and analysed. The proposed models interpolate and transfer loads from the fluid to the solid domains, and conversely, displacements from the solid to the fluid domains between non-collocated grids. To validate this approach, we tested it on a 3D FSI problem, which involved damped oscillations of a flexible flap submerged in a fluid cavity. Adequately trained NARX interface models demonstrate reliable input–output mapping and accurate prediction of transient behaviour at the interface. Additionally, we explored the concept of reduced-order modelling (ROM) in the time domain. This allowed us to reduce the model’s complexity by half. Different training algorithms were evaluated to enhance the efficiency and performance of the proposed scheme. The study demonstrates that NARX networks trained with Bayesian Regularization (BR) and Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) algorithms exhibit the best accuracy, while the scaled conjugate gradient (SCG)-based training method provides better computational efficiency with acceptable accuracy. Overall, the NARX interface models provide precise performance and offer a viable potential for applications in FSI problems requiring accurate and faster computations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":"131 ","pages":"Article 104200"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142571756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Another type of dimension reduction method is dynamic condensation originating from Guyan method. In this paper, introducing the idea of CMS and combining the Guyan method, an efficient condensation solution method is proposed to solve the fluid-structure interaction dynamic models. In the dynamical modeling, both the structure field and fluid field are discretized using 20-node three dimensional elements. The elemental fluid-structure interaction equations of motion are formulated using the Hamilton principle and weighted residual method. The solid and fluid fields are divided into substructures, and all the degrees of freedom (DOFs) of the two fields are divided into interior structure DOFs, boundary structure DOFs, interior master fluid DOFs, interior salve fluid DOFs, as well as boundary fluid DOFs. In the solid substructures, higher orders of mode are neglected to realize a large-scale dimensional reduction, while for the fluid field, the slave DOFs are replaced by the master DOFs.
