Reply To: Hydrostatic Equillibrium and material deformation in S-ALE FSI

[Ian Do]

Hi Abhemanyu,

Can you list out exactly which KW you modified and how were they modified?

During the conversion, please make sure you check:  (IC = initial condition, BC = boundary condition)

• unit system used
• mat data - check EOS (IC) input & the resulting P0(t=0), rho0(t=0) in all ALE fluids
• IC's BC's - vel(t=0) 

It looks like there may be something wrong in the input that causes the strange ship hull deformation(?). You can try:

• go back to run the original model (no changes)
• then convert 1 KW at a time and rerun
• This will pin down exactly which change may cause the strange result.

Hope this helps.
