We present a brief introduction to Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics SPH where we focus on an approach to treat the physical viscosity Additionally we describe in detail the basic principles of our parallel implementation of the SPH method In the second part we summarise some results of test simulations performed to achieve general features of the method and we end discussing some astrophysical a...

-A two-component smectic undergoing a demixing tran~ition to two coexisting smectic pha~es exhibits a novel spinodal pattern as observed by light ~cattering and optical microscopy. We show that this ~pinodal, characterized by a prescribed angle between the mo~t intense wavevectors and the layer normal, is the result of the instability of the baroclinic mode of two-cojnponent smectic hydrodynamics.

In this paper, we use the parallel open source code parallelSPHysics based on the weakly compressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (WCSPH) approach to study a spillway flow over stepped stairs. SPH is a robust mesh-free particle modelling technique and has great potential in treating the free surfaces in spillway hydraulics. A laboratory experiment is carried out for the different flow disch...

The life of a tsunami is usually divided into three phases: the generation (tsunami source), the propagation and the inundation. Each phase is complex and often described separately. A brief description of each phase is given. Model problems are identified. Their formulation is given. While some of these problems can be solved analytically, most require numerical techniques. The inundation phas...

modelling the various kind of fluid based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) in modelling and simulating the gas flow with free surfaces. The modelling technique uses particle system together with molecular dynamics and also any possible external forces. The fluid equations previously used to model compressible fluid are now used to model incompressible fluid, the stiff gas, which is ofte...

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics SPH is a particle method to sim ulate compressible uids First we present a brief introduction to SPH where we focus on an approach to treat the physical viscosity Then we describe in detail the basic principles of our parallel implementation of the SPH method The e ciency of the code on Cray T E and IBM SP is discussed In the last part we present a short introduc...

Abstract Intrinsic permeability of a porous material is crucial parameter in various application fields like e.g. geosciences, materials science, biological sciences and mechanical engineering. In contrast to the often used purely linear models, however, it also (nonlinear) function Reynolds number (Re) with onset influence inertial forces. coarse‐grained continuum models Forchheimer equation d...

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics SPH is a meshless Lagrangian parti cle method for solving a system of hydrodynamic equations for compressible uids SPH is especially suited for problems with free boundaries a commonplace situation in as trophysics Rather than solving the equations on a grid the equations are solved at the positions of the so called particles each representing a mass packet with ...
