Learn about a spline-based computational framework for modeling fluid-structure-contact interactions in this 21-minute conference presentation from the MFEM Workshop 2025. Discover how researcher Jaewook Lee from TU Wien developed a novel approach to simulate the secondary shear-zone in orthogonal cutting processes by treating it as a complex multiphysics problem involving fluid, structural, and contact mechanics. Explore the technical implementation that couples MFEM's NURBS discretization-based structural solver with a custom fluid solver, demonstrating how MFEM's modular architecture facilitates spline-based extensions and their seamless integration into coupled simulation processes. Gain insights into advanced computational methods for analyzing complex phenomena occurring in orthogonal cutting contact zones, including the mathematical foundations and practical applications of this multiphysics modeling approach. Understand how high-order finite element methods can be leveraged to tackle challenging engineering problems that require simultaneous consideration of fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, and contact interactions.
