    Hashemi, Mohammad Reza; Fatehi, Rouhollah; Manzari, Mehrdad T. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this work, the Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) is adapted and implemented in the context of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method to study moving solid bodies in an incompressible fluid flow. The proposed computational ...
  • Dynamic refinement for fluid flow simulations with SPH 

    Reyes López, Yaidel; Roose, Dirk (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this paper, we present a dynamic refinement algorithm for the SPH method where a particle is refined by replacing it with smaller daughter particles. The position of the new particles is calculated by using a square pattern ...

    Eghtesad, A.; Shafiei, A.R. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Corrective smoothed particle method (CSPM) has been used to study the dynamic behavior of targets with different materials; AL, ALN and AL-ALN FGM in long rod penetration of an AL projectile. A mixed strength model with ...
  • Smoothed particle hydrodynamics on GPU computing 

    Crespo, A.J.C.; Domínguez, J.M.; Valdez-Balderas, D.; Rogers, B.D.; Gómez-Gesteira, M. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a powerful technique used to simulate complex free-surface flows. However one of the main drawbacks of this method is the expensive computational runtime and the large number of ...
  • On the GPU computing of massive forming process simulations 

    Ostermeyer, G.-P.; Fischer, K. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    This contribution presents a modelling tool for massive forming processes that is based on a particle method. The introduced model is able to represent the realistic behaviour of different types of forming processes. As ...
  • Soft versus hard metastable conformations in molecular simulations 

    Fackeldey, Konstantin; Röblitz, Susanna; Scharkoi, Olga; Weber, Marcus (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Particle methods have become indispensible in conformation dynamics to compute transition rates in protein folding, binding processes and molecular design, to mention a few. Conformation dynamics requires at a decomposition ...
  • Molecular-dynamics investigation of nanoburnishing process 

    Kuznetsov, Viktor P.; Nikonov, Antony Y.; Dmitriev, Andrey I. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    It is well known that the burnishing process affects the surface characteristic, namely: surface roughness, surface hardness, wear resistance, fatigue resistance and increased maximum residual stress in compression. ...
  • Smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulation of nonspherical particle suspensions 

    Polfer, Pit; Wonisch, Andreas; Kraft, Torsten (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Particulate suspensions are used in many technical areas: ceramic processing, powder metallurgy and pharmaceutical applications being only a few examples. In many of these applications the microstructure determines the ...
  • Permeability assessment of heterogeneous porous media using the Lattice Boltzmann method 

    Jones, B.; Feng, Y.T. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Material characterisation is one of the most important aspects of accurate numerical modelling; correct material properties must be obtained for the correct behaviour to be observed. Traditionally permeability is measured ...
  • Numerical simulation of oil leakage, water flooding and damaged stability of oil carrier based on moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method 

    Cheng, Liang-Yee; Gomes, Diogo V.; Yoshino, Adriano M.; Nishimoto, Kazuo (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Oil leakage or water flooding in a damaged oil carrier are complex phenomena that involve fluid-solid interaction with complicated geometry and multiphase flow. In order to assess the damaged stability and environmental ...
  • Numerical investigation of three-phase flows using incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics 

    Zainali, Amir; Tofighi, Nima; Yildiz, Mehmet (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    An ISPH method for the simulation of three-phase flows is presented in this article. The proposed method is investigated through the simulation of a droplet located at the interface of two immiscible fluids as well as diamond ...
  • Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by SPH 

    Shadloo, M.S.; Yildiz, M. (2011)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this paper, we have modeled the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) problem of an incompressible two-phase immiscible fluid in a stratified inviscid shear flow with interfacial tension using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics ...
