SPH-EBG simulation of oil spill containment by a flexible boom

Some topics on the smooth particle hydrodynamics method

“…The review paper from Xu et al [3] put an emphasis on the recent advances of SPH method in fluid, solid, and biomechanics, including the algorithm and engineering applications. The other papers [4-9] cover the latest development of SPH, ranging from the typical problem of fluid-structure interaction (such as aircraft fuel tank sloshing [4] and elastic cylinder impacting on the free surface [5]), multiphase flow problem (e.g., oil spill diffusion in seawater currents [6]), to the heat transfer problems, including the convergence of the integral SPH solution to the advection-diffusion equation [7] and an integrative SPH method [8] for thermal-fluid-structure interaction, as well as on the coupled numerical method of SPH (SPH-EBG method) [9]. In addition, the phase change model based on the SPH method is established, which explores a new perspective on the numerical simulation of cavitation flow [10].…”
