Three dimensional modelling of lava flow using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

Flood modelling with HydraTE: 2+1-dimensional smoothed-particle hydrodynamics

We present HydraTE, our own implementation of the smoothed-particle hydrodynamics technique for shallow water that uses the adaptive size of the smoothing kernel as a proxy for the local water depth. We derive the equations of motion for this approach from the Lagrangian before demonstrating that we can model the depth of water in a trough, implement vertical walls, recover the correct accelera...

Simulation of Cold Rolling Process Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)

Regarding the reported capabilities and the simplifications of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method, as a mesh-free technique in numerical simulations of the deformation processes, a 2-D approach on cold rolling process was provided. Using and examining SPH on rolling process not only caused some minor developments on SPH techniques but revealed some physical realities. The chosen t...

Modelling aerated flows with smoothed particle hydrodynamics

Modelling aerated flows is a complex application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) since the interfaces between air and water change rapidly. In this work, the simulation of aerated flows with the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is investigated with a focus towards the application in engineering practice. To prove the accuracy of the method, the processes of air entrainment and...

Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics for Industrial Flow Simulations

Pictorial representation of the nine Fluent 5 benchmark test cases (see article on page 13) Editorial L'inauguration de la Swiss T1 du 23 août dernier à l'EPFL a démontré que l'utilisation d'un ordinateur parallèle basé sur une grappe constituée de composants standard du marché est une solution viable pour des calculs à haute performance. Les résultats obtenus par les différents utilisateurs su...
