Abstract

The essential feature in arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) based finite element approaches is the additional requirement to consider flow effects of the materials and the solution variables through the computational domain. These flow effects are commonly known as advective effects. The present paper examines different advection strategies for the application of the ALE finite element method in a finite deformation solid mechanics framework, where especially micromechanical problems are referred to. The global solution algorithm is based on the well-known fractional step method that provides an operator splitting approach for the solution of the coupled ALE equations. Distinguishing the so-called single-material and the multi-material ALE method, different advection schemes based on volume- and material-associated advection procedures are required. For the latter case, the material interfaces are not resolved explicitly by the finite element mesh. Instead a volume-of-fluid interface tracking approach in terms of the volume fractions of the different material phases is applied.
