The *TIE option is tested for a number of general cases and for the special case of acoustic-structural coupling.
These tests verify the performance of the *TIE option for various analyses using acoustic, continuum, and shell elements with the surfaces defined in different ways.
The results for the general cases indicate that the surfaces can be adjusted and tied appropriately.
In the suite of coupled acoustic-structural input files each of the acoustic element types is tested in both slave and master roles, tied to master surfaces formed of solid continuum elements of similar interpolation order. In addition, the suite includes input files testing the quadratic acoustic element types in the slave role, with linear solid continuum elements forming the master surfaces. The results indicate that the fluid-solid coupling functions correctly.
