FEniCS is a programming environment so you need to write a program (in
Python or C++) that solves your problem.

If you want to simulate FSI, you could try the FSI code which is
available in the CBC.Solve package. It's currently in development and
we have not yet released a stable version. Download the package from here:

  https://launchpad.net/cbc.solve

Then look inside the directory sandbox/fsi

We expect to polish the code and make a release within a month or so.
