In the first problem the Saffman-Taylor viscous fingering problem is discussed for the case that there are geo- metric variations in the flow directions – we show via experiments and theory that such changes can significantly modify the stability features of the flow. In the second problem we consider the low Reynolds number motion of a hot sphere in a fluid accounting for the variations of the viscosity with temperature – we show that the Lorentz Reciprocal Theorem provides a means to construct an analytical representation of the force and torque on the sphere for the case of small viscosity variations. Finally, we present exper- iments of unexpected dynamics in modest Reynolds number flows at a T-junction and rationalize the results by demonstrating the connections to vortex breakdown. Plenary Lecture 1 06.03.2017 15:00-16:00 Chair: Jörg Schumacher (TU Ilmenau) Weimar hall, Large hall The h-principle in fluid mechanics: non-uniqueness and energy dissipation László Székelyhidi (Leipzig) It is known since the pioneering work of Scheffer and Shnirelman in the 1990s that weak solutions of the incompressible Euler equations behave very differently from classical solutions, in a way that is very difficult to interpret from a physical point of view. Nev- ertheless, weak solutions in three space dimensions have been studied in connection with a long-standing conjecture of Lars Onsager from 1949 concerning anomalous dissipation and, more generally, because of their possible relevance to Kolmogorov’s K41 theory of turbulence. In joint work with Camillo De Lellis we established a connection between the theory of weak solutions of the Euler equations and the Nash-Kuiper theorem on rough isometric immersions. Through this connection we can interpret the wild behaviour of weak solutions of the Euler equations as an instance of Gromov’s celebrated h-principle. In this lecture I will explain this connection and outline the most recent progress con- cerning Onsager’s conjecture. 4 Plenary Lectures Plenary Lecture 2 06.03.2017 16:30-17:30 Chair: Carsten Könke (Bauhaus-Universität Weimar) Weimar hall, Large hall Stochastic structural mechanics - from probability theory to structural design Christian Bucher (Wien) Structural mechanics since its beginnings has developed very strongly with respect to more accurate modelling and analysis. A key role in this development play numerical methods, especially those based on the concept of finite elements. This high degree of presision, however, is undermined by imprecise and/or incomplete knowledge about the describing parameters of the models and the environmental actions on the structures, such as e.g. wind or earthquakes. Even with a substantially increased effort for ex- perimental evidence, it is frequently not possible to arrive at deterministic descriptions for these parameters. Therefore uncertainty-based (e.g. probabilistic) analysis becomes mandatory. This lecture will highlight some selected points how stochastic structural mechanics can contribute to solve open problems related to the development of struc- tural design procedures. Plenary Lecture 3 06.03.2017 17:30-18:30 Chair: Thomas Hotz (TU Ilmenau) Weimar hall, Large hall Uncertainty Quantification: Propagation and Inference Oliver Ernst (Chemnitz) The dynamically growing scientific discipline of Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) ad- dresses the numerous sources of uncertainty in complex simulations of scientific and engineering phenomena in order to assess the validity, reliability and robustness of the results of such simulations. In this regard, it represents a key enabling technology for what is now called Predictive Computational Science. In this talk we focus on two key UQ components. The first, uncertainty propagation, is concerned with solving a random differential equation, by which is meant a differential equation containing uncertain data modeled by a probability law. We highlight recent developments in collocation methods which address the situation where the uncertain data is parameterized by a countably infinite number of random parameters. In the second part of the talk we present numerical methods for performing Bayesian inference on such random data as a systematic way of merging observational data with a given probabilistic model. The challenge here is to efficiently sample from the posterior dis- tribution in an infinite-dimensional state space with cost that is robust with respect to state space resolution and the variance of the observational noise. Plenary Lectures 5 Plenary Lecture 4 07.03.2017 11:30-12:30 Chair: Peter Benner (MPI Magdeburg) Weimar hall, Large hall Model-Reduction in Micromechanics of Materials Pierre Suquet (LMA, CNRS, Marseille) A common practice in structural problems involving heterogeneous materials with well separated scales, is to use homogenized, or effective, constitutive relations. In linear elasticity the structure of the homogenized constitutive relations is strictly preserved in the change of scales. The linear effective properties can be computed once for all by solving a finite number of unit-cell problems. Unfortunately there is no exact scale- decoupling in multiscale nonlinear problems which would allow one to solve only a few unit-cell problems and then use them subsequently at a larger scale. Computational ap- proaches developed to investigate the response of representative volume elements along specific loading paths, do not provide constitutive relations. Most of the huge

Each wheel assembly includes a rotatable portion connected to its associated tire and a non-rotatable portion connected to the vehicle chassis. A sealed air passageway is provided between an inlet in the non-rotatable portion and an outlet in the rotatable portion of the wheel assembly which is connected to the tire. The sealed air passageway is provided in part by way of a longitudinally extending bore in the spindle which communicates with a chamber defined by a sleeve and a pair of air seals between the sleeve and spindle. A manually actable selector device in the vehicle is provided to permit the user to select one of a plurality of preset air pressure settings for the tires. An air regulating system quickly responds to the selected setting to automatically regulate the air pressure within the tires at the preset pressure associated with the selected setting of the selector device. A master- slave valving arrangement controlled by pilot air is preferably used to perform the inflation or deflation process.

  • Scalable Large-Scale Fluid-Structure Interaction Solvers in the Uintah Framework Via Hybrid Task-Based Parallelism Algorithms
    1 Scalable Large-scale Fluid-structure Interaction Solvers in the Uintah Framework via Hybrid Task-based Parallelism Algorithms Qingyu Meng, Martin Berzins UUSCI-2012-004 Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute University of Utah Salt Lake City, UT 84112 USA May 7, 2012 Abstract: Uintah is a software framework that provides an environment for solving fluid-structure interaction problems on structured adaptive grids on large-scale science and engineering problems involving the solution of partial differential equations. Uintah uses a combination of fluid-flow solvers and particle-based methods for solids, together with adaptive meshing and a novel asynchronous task-based approach with fully automated load balancing. When applying Uintah to fluid-structure interaction problems with mesh refinement, the combination of adaptive meshing and the move- ment of structures through space present a formidable challenge in terms of achieving scalability on large-scale parallel computers. With core counts per socket continuing to grow along with the prospect of less memory per core, adopting a model that uses MPI to communicate between nodes and a shared memory model on-node is one approach to achieve scalability at full machine capacity on current and emerging large-scale systems. For this approach to be successful, it is necessary to design data-structures that large numbers of cores can simultaneously access without contention. These data structures and algorithms must also be designed to avoid the overhead involved with locks and other synchronization primitives when running on large number of cores per node, as contention for acquiring locks quickly becomes untenable. This scalability challenge is addressed here for Uintah, by the development of new hybrid runtime and scheduling algorithms combined with novel lockfree data structures, making it possible for Uintah to achieve excellent scalability for a challenging fluid-structure problem with mesh refinement on as many as 260K cores.

  • The Material-Point Method for Granular Materials
    Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 187 (2000) 529±541 www.elsevier.com/locate/cma The material-point method for granular materials S.G. Bardenhagen a, J.U. Brackbill b,*, D. Sulsky c a ESA-EA, MS P946 Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87545, USA b T-3, MS B216 Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87545, USA c Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of New Mexico, Albuquerqe, NM 87131, USA Abstract A model for granular materials is presented that describes both the internal deformation of each granule and the interactions between grains. The model, which is based on the FLIP-material point, particle-in-cell method, solves continuum constitutive models for each grain. Interactions between grains are calculated with a contact algorithm that forbids interpenetration, but allows separation and sliding and rolling with friction. The particle-in-cell method eliminates the need for a separate contact detection step. The use of a common rest frame in the contact model yields a linear scaling of the computational cost with the number of grains. The properties of the model are illustrated by numerical solutions of sliding and rolling contacts, and for granular materials by a shear calculation. The results of numerical calculations demonstrate that contacts are modeled accurately for smooth granules whose shape is resolved by the computation mesh. Ó 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.
