چکیده

The reaction of fluid or gas flowing around an obstacle is a common engineering problem. Computer simulations are often used to measure and visualize the physical processes involved. In this report, we will discuss a parallel implementation of a simulation using the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) approach to fluid flow. We will discuss the design decisions made during development, problems encountered during implementation, and parallel performance issues. Section 2 will introduce the fluid flow problem, the SPH technique, and our project motivations. Section 3 will discuss our first O(N 2) serial version of the simulator. Section 4

Numerical Simulation of Squeezed Flow of a Viscoplastic Material by a Three-step Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Method

In the current work, the mesh free Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, was employed to numerically investigate the transient flow of a viscoplastic material. Using this method, large deformation of the sample and its free surface boundary were captured without the cumbersome process of the grid generation. This three-step SPH scheme employs an explicit predictor-corrector technique an...

The Analysis of Particle Flow using the Parallelised Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Method

In smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), an adaptive and meshfree particle method, the particle positions and velocities related to particle interactions must be updated at each time step. Thus, parallel computing is necessary to improve the numerical efficiency for the problems involving large computational domains. For the parallelization of the SPH method, the simulation domain is decompose...

Numerical investigation of free surface flood wave and solitary wave using incompressible SPH method

Simulation of free surface flow and sudden wave profile are recognized as the most challenging problem in computational hydraulics. Several Eulerian/Lagrangian approaches and models can be implemented for simulating such phenomena in which the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method (SPH) is categorized as a proper candidate. The incompressible SPH (ISPH) method hires a precise incompressible hy...
