We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Why phase lag is not seen in a FSI analysis?

    • FAQFAQ

      In a structural transient analysis, when we have damping, we see a phase lag due to the damping term (being proportional to velocity rather than displacement). In a transient FSI analysis, the situation is different – Fluent does not give Mechanical a damping matrix. Instead, Mechanical passes displacements to Fluent, which returns forces (pressures).
