Summary: In this work, we present a novel method for the mesh update in flow problems with moving boundaries, the phantom domain deformation mesh update method (PD-DMUM). The PD-DMUM is designed to avoid remeshing; even in the event of large, unidirectional displacements of boundaries. The method combines the concept of two mesh adaptation approaches: (1) The virtual ring shear-slip mesh update method (VR-SSMUM); and (2) the elastic mesh update method (EMUM). As in the VR-SSMUM, the PD-DMUM extends the fluid domain by a phantom domain; the PD-DMUM can thus locally adapt the element density. Combined with the EMUM, the PD-DMUM allows the consideration of arbitrary boundary movements. In this work, we apply the PD-DMUM in two test cases. Within the first test case, we validate the PD-DMUM in a 2D Poiseuille flow on a moving background mesh. Subsequently the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem serves as a proof of concept. Within the FSI problem, isogeometric analysis and NURBS-enhanced finite elements are employed to ensure an accurate description of the moving boundaries and a consistent coupling along the FSI boundary. Moreover, we stress the advantages of the novel method as compared to conventional mesh update approaches.
