Abstract

JOSEPHINE is a parallel Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics program, designed to solve unsteady free-surface flows. The adopted numerical scheme is efficient and has been validated on a first case, where a liquid drop is stretched over the time. Boundary conditions can also be modelled, as it is demonstrated in a second case: the collapse of a water column. Results show good agreement with both reference numerical solutions and experiments. The use of parallelism allows significant reduction of the computational time, even more with large number of particles. JOSEPHINE has been written so that any untrained developers can handle it easily and implement new features.

SPH is a Lagrangian mesh free particle method, thus, no explicit tracking procedure is required to catch the free surface. Incompressibility is satisfied using a weakly compressible model. Boundary conditions at walls are enforced by means of the ghost particles technique. The free-surface dynamic and kinematic conditions are applied implicitly.Running time: 15 mn on 4 processors for the dam-break case with 5000 particles, dependent upon the real duration (2 s here).
