On the Construction of Kernel-Based Adaptive Particle Methods in Numerical Flow Simulation
نویسنده
چکیده
This contribution discusses the construction of kernel-based adaptive particle methods for numerical flow simulation, where the finite volume particle method (FVPM) is used as a prototype. In the FVPM, scattered data approximation algorithms are required in the recovery step of the WENO reconstruction. We first show how kernel-based approximation schemes can be used in the recovery step of particle methods, where we give preference to the radial polyharmonic spline kernel. Then we discuss important aspects concerning the numerical stability and approximation behaviour of polyharmonic splines. Moreover, we propose customized coarsening and refinement rules for the adaptive resampling of the particles. Supporting numerical examples and comparisons with other radial kernels are provided.

Numerical Simulation of Seepage Flow through Dam Foundation Using Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics Method (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper, a mesh-free approach called smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is proposed to analyze the seepage problem in porous media. In this method, computational domain is discredited by some nodes, and there is no need for background mesh; therefore, it is a truly meshless method. The method was applied to analyze seepage flow through a concrete dam foundation. Using the SPH method, the...

Fluid flow has a fundamental role in the performance of packed bed reactors. Some related issues, such as pressure drop, are strongly affected by porosity, so non-spherical particles are used in industry for enhancement or creation of the desired porosity. In this study, the effects of particle shape, size, and porosity of the bed on the hydrodynamics of packed beds are investigated with three ...
