Numerical computation of fluid–solid mixture flow using the SPH–VCPM–DEM method

Review of fluid-structure interaction algorithm and its application in the aviation field

“…Compared with the meshed method, the meshless method, in which the fluid is generally composed of a large number of independent particles, is not limited by the mesh between the particles, and thus can effectively solve large deformation problems. The current mainstream meshless methods include Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) [15], Discrete Element Method (DEM) [16], Material Point Method (MPM) [17] and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) [18], etc. The typical solution process of the meshless method is shown in Fig.…”

A Review of SPH Techniques for Hydrodynamic Simulations of Ocean Energy Devices

“…In fact, SPH-solver coupling with other methods has been defined as one of the grand challenges for the SPH community by SPHERIC in 2020 [102]. To date, the SPH-DEM solver for fluid-granule problems (see, e.g., [250][251][252][253][254]) and SPH-FE/TLSPH solvers (see, e.g., [200][201][202][203][204][210][211][212][213][214]) for the fluid-solid problem are relatively mature, whereas for fluid simulations, the "SPH+X" coupling solver is still an open topic that has been attracting more and more attention from the SPH community. As discussed in Section 1, the potential-flow theory and the RANS approach are two popular mesh-based methods for simulating OEDs; it is thus naturally the best method to couple these two schemes with the SPH method.…”
