Numerical Computations for Mixed Solid/Fluid Interaction

 

  

  Figure 1. This shows the interface between a solid above a gas. The top picture shows the initial simple configuration
  and the bottom show the interface at time t=.00024. Notice the deformation of the solid.

 

    

  Figure 2. This figure shows the velocity field associtaed with Figure 1. Notice the planar shock at t=0 (top)
  and the velocity field at t=0.00024 (bottom).

 

    

  Figure 3. This case shows a more interesting initial interface (top) and its deformation at later time (bottom, t=0.0006).

 

    

  Figure 4. This figure shows the associated velocity fields for Figure 3.
