Reply To: ALE method to simulate wake of a ship

[Aspen Webster]

The Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method can be suitable for simulations involving larger time durations, as it allows for the mesh to move and deform with battleship game the flow. This can be advantageous for capturing complex fluid-structure interactions over extended periods. However, the choice of method depends on various factors, including the specific problem, computational resources, and desired accuracy. It is recommended to perform a feasibility study and consider the trade-offs between accuracy and computational cost before selecting the ALE method for your simulation.
