I want to simulate an artificial pneumatic muscle which has a simple cylindrical geometry initially. When the muscle is inflated with fluid/air…it will expand in the midsection (inflate in transverse direction) causing to contract in longitudinal direction. I was wondering if “Fluid structural interaction” can be used for this purpose. If not what are the options?

Another thing is, the domain would have and inlet without any outlet. The fluid would accumulate inside the volume causing it to inflate in transverse direction producing a contraction in longitudinal direction. I would really appreciate any guidance or suggestion from the community.
