i have done FSI using 2d elements(plain strain)......


but..
i need to do an FSI with beam element?

can somebody give me some suggestions?

Hi

not really, as for 2D/3D the Boundaries reflect the true areas interacting with the fluid, while in Beam physics, the lines have thickness and width, so this geometrical information must be added to the equations, but what else ?

Good luck
