We present a simple numerical method to simulate the interaction of two non-miscible compressible materials separated by an interface. The media considered may have significantly different physical properties and constitutive laws, describing for example fluids or hyperelastic solids. The model is fully Eulerian and the scheme is the same for all materials. We show stiff numerical illustrations in case of gas-gas, gas-water, gas-elastic solid interactions in the large deformation regime.

To cite this version: AbstractWe present a finite-volume scheme for compressible Euler flows where the grid is cartesian and it does not fit to the body. The scheme, based on the definition of an ad hoc Riemann problem at solid boundaries, is simple to implement and it is formally second order accurate. Error convergence rates with respect to several exact test cases are investigated and examples of flow solutions in one, two and three dimensions are presented.
