    Abstract
    In this study, the numerical simulation of the two-dimensional incompressible flow around an oscillating airfoil is performed. For this aim, the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations based on the artificial compressibility approach written in the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian form are considered. Then, the vorticity confinement method is incorporated in the formulation and the resulting system of equations is solved by a second-order central-difference finite volume method with the controllable dissipation terms. For the time integration, the implicit dual-time stepping scheme is implemented. At first, the numerical solution of the incompressible flow over the oscillating NACA0012 airfoil...
