Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations are coupled CFD (fluids) and FEM (mechanics) cases. FSI is a part of mulitphysics simulations and an actual main focus in CFD development. As these solvers use different methods and codes, the transfer of the boundary conditions at the interface is an important feature of an FSI solution.
