Fluid-Structure Interaction

Fluid-Structure Interaction

Fluid-Structure Interaction

(OP)
Hi,
I want to model a container poured with water and I want to exert an earthquake record to the container and find the fluid behavior. My problem is I do not know why fluid and container does not have any interaction while I use Abaqus explicit Default contact. It means that water will exit from the bottom of the container.
Your kind assistance are appreciated in advance!

RE: Fluid-Structure Interaction

If you model the water already in the container, and apply the earthquake load, then you're looking at a fairly standard (but still complex) sloshing fluid-structure interaction type problem that Abaqus can solve, and the documentation probably has a related example. If you want to model the "pouring" of the water into the container as well, that's different.
