Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research is aimed to establish solving fluid mechanics equations for practical engineering problems. The important point in this research is that not only modeling on spatial discretization but also temporal discretization; space and time modeling.
There are three topics. One is smoothness of the motion, which comes from acceleration continuity in dynamics. Second one is topology change in fluid domain, such as heart valve problems. The third one is how to treat rotating objects, such as wind turbine problems.
