SUMMARY:An OpenFoam Free VKI Seminar - Introduction to the deformable overs
 et method for the simulation of flexible and moving bodies
DESCRIPTION:We thank you for your interest. The seminar is full. New semina
 rs are planned in 2024. We will inform you as soon as possible. 
  
 An
  OpenFoam Free VKI Seminar - Introduction to the deformable overset method
  for the simulation of flexible and moving bodies
 Ir. Romain Poletti\, P
 hD at the von Karman institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI)
 The event aims t
 o bring together OpenFOAM users as well as those interested in potential a
 pplications of the code\, both for academic and industrial purposes. The s
 eminar will be held in hybrid mode\, and it will be organized in the follo
 wing way:
 15:00 Welcome and roundtable
 15.30 Session on “Introductio
 n to the deformable overset method for the simulation of flexible and movi
 ng bodies” by Romain Poletti\, von Karman Institute
 Wind turbine blade
 s\, tube bundles in nuclear reactors\, bird wings\, etc. can all experienc
 e large motion along with large deformation. CFD simulations of such appli
 cations rely on dynamic grids which must continuously adapt to preserve hi
 gh-quality cells. The present OpenFOAM session introduces the overset meth
 od\, the deforming mesh technique and demonstrates how their merging allow
 s to simulate bodies with arbitrarily large motion and deformation. The de
 velopments are presented with a step-by-step tutorial on flapping and defo
 rming airfoils in OpenFOAM v2012. The tutorial ends with post-processing t
 ools for analyzing results and a brief introduction to coupling OpenFOAM w
 ith an open-source Fluid-Structure interaction solver. All code developmen
 ts will be released on a GitHub link.
 16.30 Small presentation of the vo
 n Karman Institute and their main applications of OpenFOAM
  All the mat
 erial to follow the tutorial will be provided to the participants during t
 he event\, and an online platform will be created to share material and cr
 eate discussions.
 The event will be organized four times a year and we w
 ould like to invite you to share your applications and implementation.
