This paper presents a simple idea of incorporating fluid-structure interaction (FSI) into classic rectilinear flow problems by treating solid boundaries as rigid bodies. By extending and solving four examples using Laplace transform, closed-form expressions of solid velocity are obtained, and the impact of solid inertia is discussed. The solutions provide general theoretical interest and can be used to validate numerical methods.
A simple idea to include fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in classic rectilinear flow problems is presented. By allowing a solid boundary to behave as a rigid body, instead of holding it at constant motions, dynamic FSI problems amenable to analytical methods are obtained. Four examples (Stokes's first problem, Couette flow, rotating disk, and rotating sphere) are extended and solved by Laplace transform. Closed-form expressions of the solid velocity are obtained either for the general case or in the large-time limit, and the effects of solid inertia are discussed. In all cases, the total displacement of the solid before the coupled system reaches steady-state is obtained exactly. These solutions have general theoretical interest and can also be used to validate numerical methods.
