Title: Concerning an alternative inf-sup formulation of a certain Fluid-Structure PDE Interaction
Abstract: In this talk, we discuss our recent work concerning a nonstandard implementation of the Babuska-Brezzi Theorem, by way of ascertaining strongly continuous semigroup generation for a certain coupled incompressible fluid – elastic dynamics. The coupling between these two disparate dynamics is enacted via a boundary interface. The modus operandi, entailed in this (continuous) mixed variational formulation, allows for the derivation of a (discrete) finite element method (FEM) with which to numerically approximate the fluid-flow solution variables.
We will have the Departmental Coffee and Tea from 10 to 10:45 in M&P 422.
