“…Herein, for the continuity equation the delta-SPH density diffusion formulation is used, first suggested by Molteni and Colagrossi (2009), as this has been shown to give noise-free pressure fields and close agreement with experimental data for wave propagation (Antuono et al, 2012;Altomare et al, 2015). Therefore, using the SPH divergence and gradient operators the conservation of mass for a particle is given by…”

Today, the use of modern high-performance computing (HPC) systems, such as clusters equipped with graphics processing units (GPUs), allows solving problems with resolutions unthinkable only a decade ago. The demand for high computational power is certainly an issue when simulating free-surface flows. However, taking the advantage of GPU's parallel computing techniques, simulations involving up to 10 9 particles can be achieved. In this framework, this chapter shows some numerical results of typical coastal engineering problems obtained by means of the GPU-based computing servers maintained at the Environmental Physics Laboratory (EPhysLab) from Vigo University in Ourense (Spain) and the Tier-1 Galileo cluster of the Italian computing centre CINECA. The DualSPHysics free package based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique was used for the purpose. SPH is a meshless particle method based on Lagrangian formulation by which the fluid domain is discretized as a collection of computing fluid particles. Speedup and efficiency of calculations are studied in terms of the initial interparticle distance and by coupling DualSPHysics with a NLSW wave propagation model. Water free-surface elevation, orbital velocities and wave forces are compared with results from experimental campaigns and theoretical solutions.

“…Despite its inception in 1977 [31,32], we found hydrodynamic applications of SPH only since mid-1990s [33] and specific investigations of FSI since 2000s [34,35]. Recently, SPH has been considered as a valuable method for solving real-life problems in coastal engineering as in [36] due its intrinsic capability to deal with large deformation and complex geometries. Altomare et al, [37] carried advanced investigations of wave interaction with armour block sea breakwater.…”

Abstract. The impact of a free surface liquid flow on planar surfaces is a common occurrence and a challenging issue in many research fields. There are many situations in science and technology where this field of study finds related applications: the falling objects on a liquid surface, sloshing dynamics, flow run-up and overtopping, the action of train waves on maritime structures. Under certain circumstances, the impact process may result into high, spatially localized pressure peaks, thus inducing dangerous solicitations. The present work focuses on some relevant computational aspects of the fluid impact on inclined planar surfaces, making use of the Weakly Compressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (WCSPH) Lagrangian technique. With reference to the early stages of the impact process, pressure distribution is described as function of the incident wave's features and the angle of incidence of the solid surface assumed. Results are then discussed and compared with the corresponding ones obtained via Eulerian software.
