Abstract
This contribution on dynamic fluid-body interactions concentrates on applying mathematical/analytical ideas to complement direct numerical studies. The typical body may be of given shape or flexible depending on the context. In the background there are numerous real-world motivations in industry, biomedical and environmental applications, many of which involve high flow rates. A review of ideas developed over the last decade for cases of high flow rates first addresses inviscid approaches to one or more bodies free to move within a channel flow, a skimming sharp-edged body on a free surface, the sinking of a body in water and the rocking or rolling of a body on a solid surface, before moving on to more recent viscous-inviscid approaches for channel flows and boundary layers. The beginnings of certain current research projects are also outlined. These concern models of liftoff of a body from a solid surface, the impact of a smooth body during skimming and viscous-inviscid effects in the presence of more than one freely moving body. Linear and nonlinear mathematical properties as appropriate are described.
