How to perform 2 way coupling simulation in a solid-fluid interaction

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,
I am stuck with a flow through a pipe problem,I am solving for the pressure applied by the fluid on the boundary of the solid layer which gets displaced due to the flow in the tube. I am applying the moving mesh ALE to the solid surface and the fluid mesh is kept fixed. As a result the solver is able to show only the results of the solid domain and not of the liquid one(I guess this is due to the fixed mesh for the fluid). How can I get this thing fixed.

Thanks in advance.

If you're using 3.5a I suggest look at the MEMS module and the fluid-structure-interaction.mph file (you can find it on the comsol website as well)
