    Notes: Abstract A detailed description of a new numerical method for the solution of dynamic fracture problems is presented. The method employs finite volume discretization of the equilibrium equations. The present work considers the analysis of rapid crack propagation (RCP) in two-dimensional geometries only. The simulation of steady-state RCP in a peeling-strip geometry, and an economical approach which allows the calculation of the crack driving force from a ‘snapshot’ computation of the displacement field are described. Also presented is the modelling of transient RCP in single edge notch tensile specimens, based on a fixed-mesh ‘node release’ technique and a ‘holding back’ force concept. It is shown that finite volume results are in very good agreement with both analytical and finite element predictions. The accuracy, simplicity and efficiency of this novel method are also demonstrated.

    Notes: An existing two-dimensional method for the prediction of steady-state incompressible flows in complex geometry is extended to treat also compressible flows at all speeds. The primary variables are the Cartesian velocity components, pressure and temperature. Density is linked to pressure via an equation of state. The influence of pressure on density in the case of compressible flows is implicitly incorporated into the extended SIMPLE algorithm, which in the limit of incompressible flow reduces to its well-known form. Special attention is paid to the numerical treatment of boundary conditions. The method is verified on a number of test cases (inviscid and viscous flows), and both the results and convergence properties compare favourably with other numerical results available in the literature.

    Finite volume method for stress analysis in complex domains (1994)
    Chichester [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell
    International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering 37 (1994), S. 3751-3766

    Notes: In this paper an alternative to the widely used finite element method for the solution of stress analysis problems is presented. The method employs a finite volume discretization of solid body equilibrium equation written in an integral form with displacement vector as a dependent variable in conjunction with an efficient iterative procedure for the solution of resulting algebraic equations. It uses unstructured meshes with arbitrary cell topology, which greatly facilitates the solution domain discretization.The method is verified on a number of test cases and it is shown to possess all the geometrical flexibility of the finite element methods and the simplicity and efficiency of the finite volume methods.

    Finite volume method for prediction of fluid flow in arbitrarily shaped domains with moving boundaries (1990)
    Chichester : Wiley-Blackwell
    International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids 10 (1990), S. 771-790

    Notes: In this paper a method is presented that can be used for both the Lagrangian and the Eulerian solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain of arbitrary shape, bounded by boundaries which move in any prescribed time-varying fashion. The method uses the integral form of the governing equations for an arbitrary moving control volume, with pressure and Cartesian velocity components as dependent variables. Care is taken to also satisfy the space conservation law, which ensures a fully conservative computational procedure. Fully implicit temporal differencing makes the method stable for any time step.A detailed description is provided for the discretization in two dimensions, with a collocated arrangement of variables. Central differences are used to evaluate both the convection and diffusion fluxes. The well known SIMPLE algorithm is employed for pressure-velocity coupling. The resulting algebraic equation systems are solved iteratively in a sequential manner. Results are presented for a flow in a channel with a moving indentation; they show favourable agreement with experimental observations.

    Fluid flow and heat transfer test problems for non-orthogonal grids: Bench-mark solutions (1992)

    Notes: Four problems of fluid flow and heat transfer were designed in which non-orthogonal, boundary-fitted grids were to be used. These are proposed to serve as test cases for testing new solution methods. This paper presents solutions of the test problems obtained by using a multigrid finite volume method with grids of up to 320 × 320 control volumes. Starting from zero fields, iterations were performed until the sum of the absolute residuals had fallen seven orders of magnitude, thus ensuring that the variable values did not change to six most significant digits. By comparing the solutions for successive grids at moderate Reynolds and Rayleigh numbers, the discretization errors were estimated to be lower than 0·1%. The results presented in this paper may thus serve for comparison purposes as bench-mark solutions.
