We propose a new Neumann series method to solve a family of local fractional Fredholm and Volterra integral equations. The integral operator, which is used in our investigation, is of the local fractional integral operator type. Two illustrative examples show the accuracy and the reliability of the obtained results.

Based on the fundamental theory of smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH), a feasible algorithm for fluid–solid coupling on interface is applied to describe the dynamic behavior of fluid and solid by utilizing continuum mechanics governing equations. Numerical simulation is conducted based on the proposed SPH model and the fluid–solid interface coupling algorithm, and good agreement is observed with the experiment results. It is shown in the results that the present SPH model is able to effectively and accurately simulate the free-surface flow of fluid, deformation of the elastic solid and the fluid–solid impacting.

The phenomenon of droplet impacting on solid surfaces widely exists in both nature and engineering systems. However, one concern is that the microdeformation of solid surface is difficult to be observed and measured during the process of impacting. Since the microdeformation can directly affect the stability of the whole system, especially for the high-rate rotating components, it is necessary to study this phenomenon. Aiming at this problem, a new numerical simulation algorithm based on the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is brought forward to solve fluid-solid coupling and complex free surface problems in the paper. In order to test and analyze the feasibility and effectiveness of the improved SPH method, the process of a droplet impacting on an elastic plate was simulated. The numerical results show that the improved SPH method is able to present more detailed information about the microdeformation of solid surface. The influence of the elastic modulus of solid on the impacting process was also discussed.

The stilling basin has been one of the most powerful hydraulic structures for the dissipation of the flow energy. Meshfree and particle methods have special advantages in modeling incompressible flows with free surfaces. In this paper, an integrated smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is developed to model energy dissipation process of stilling basins. The integrated SPH includes the kernel gradient correction (KGC) technique, the dynamic solid boundary treatment, [Formula: see text]-SPH model and density reinitialization. We first conducted the simulations of dam-breaking and hydraulic jump to validate the accuracy of the present method. The present simulation results agree well with the experimental observations and numerical results from other sources. Then the discharge process of stilling basin with baffle-blocks is simulated with the integrated SPH. It is demonstrated that the detailed discharge process can be well captured by this method. The energy dissipation effect of stilling basin could be significantly improved by the baffle-blocks. The structure and position of the baffle-block directly affect the energy dissipation effect, while the height of the baffle-block has big influence on the drainage capacity.
