Abstract
This paper presents a numerical study for the flow analysis
with the free surface and the structure analysis by fluid
force. In the flow analysis, for the discretization of the
incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, the
Improved-Balancing-Tensor-Diffusivity method and the
Fractional-Step method are used. The Navier-Stokes
equation is expressed by the Arbitrary
Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation. And optimal
control theory is applied for the control of oscillation of
the free surface. The Limited-memory quasi-Newton
(LMQN) method is used for the minimization algorithm.
