Abstract
In this thesis the development of finite element procedures for fluid-structure interaction problems is presented. The areas upon which attention is focused are: numerical transient algorithms which emphasize implicit-explicit finite element concepts; finite element kinematical descriptions for modelling fluid subdomains in fluidstructure interaction problems; finite element methodology for nearly incompressible fluids and solids, and beam, plate and shell structures based upon theories which include transverse shear deformations; and finite rotation effects in numerical integration of rate constitutive equations arising in large-deformation analysis. All these nonlinear methodologies have been integrated into a working finite element computer code. A number of numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of these approaches.
