Solid Dynamics in Fluid, a branch of Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI), focuses on understanding how solid structures behave when immersed in or exposed to fluid environments. These interactions are critical in numerous engineering applications where fluids (liquids or gases) exert dynamic forces on solid bodies, potentially causing deformation, oscillation, or structural failure.

At Veneklasen Associates India LLP (VES), we specialize in performing high-fidelity simulations and experimental studies to predict and analyze the dynamic response of solids in fluid environments. This includes both transient (time-varying) and steady-state scenarios.

Applications of Solid Dynamics in Fluid:

• Underwater Structures & Marine Engineering: Submarines, torpedoes, pipelines, hulls subjected to fluid pressure, sloshing, and wave impact.
• Aeroelasticity in Aerospace: Wings and control surfaces experiencing fluid forces during flight leading to flutter and divergence.
• Biomedical Devices: Heart valves, stents, and blood flow dynamics affecting implant materials.
• HVAC & Ventilation: Duct systems where fluid flow interacts with flexible materials or structures.
• Energy Systems: Hydroelectric turbines, wave energy devices, and flow-induced vibrations in cooling systems.
