4C: A Comprehensive Multi-Physics Simulation Framework

4C (Comprehensive Computational Community Code) is a powerful research code for multiphysics computer simulations. Building on over 20 years of research, 4C can model a plethora of physical problems, including

  • solid mechanics,
  • fluid mechanics,
  • scalar transport,
  • chemical reactions,

among others.

Beam-Fluid Coupling

A fully coupled regularized mortar-type finite element approach for embedding one-dimensional fibers into three-dimensional fluid flow

SPH for melting processes

Multiphysics SPH simulation of additive manufacturing (SLM).

Scalar transport - solid interaction (SSI)

SSI modeling the electro-physiology and mechanical active deformation of a human heart.

FEM-DEM coupling

Coupling a DEM with a FEM discretization to simulate the impact of rigid particles onto an elastic membrane.

Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI)

Fluid-structure interaction blood flow in abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Scalar-transport-electro interaction

Simulation of a Lithium-ion battery discharge process
