Computational Fluid Dynamics

This training seminar on FSI will make you familiar with the concepts of Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) and its importance in various applications using ANSYS Products. From this training seminar, a thorough understanding of the powerful and versatile coupling methods possible in ANSYS products is obtained by numerous hands-on workshops and excercises. Beginning with the theoritical concepts of FSI problems, the course extends itself into more complex couping types needed for simulating an FSI problem.
