Introduction

In this small tutorial we will see how to simulate a fluid structure interaction problem with the membrane boundary conditon shown in the tutorial https://wiki.openfoam.com/Coupling_a_simple_nonlinear_membrane_to_point_displacement_Michael_Alletto. The test case consists in the well kown lid driven flow. In order to allow for fluid structure interaction (FSI) the bottom wall is flexible. The same test case was already used in order to validate a number of FSI codes (see e.g. [1]-[3]).
