Predicting fluid-structure interaction phenomena is an ongoing challenge in numerical simulations. While we look for fast algorithms to solve the equations, some problems need a high accuracy in order to correctly predict results. Hence, controlling every aspect of the algorithm gives the possibility to optimise specific parts, potentially leading to greater accuracy. Developing such a numerical methodology can be achieved on an open source software such as OpenFOAM.
