Abstract
Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is a meshfree, Lagrangian, particle method, which combines the advantages of Euler and Lagrangian method and has special advantages in simulating violent non-linear fluid–structure interaction problems. In this study, an improved SPH method is used to simulate four fluid–structure interaction cases. Firstly, the violent flow in the mould filling process is simulated to validate that the SPH model can obtain accurate flow patterns with any complex solid boundaries. Secondly, the dam-break flow against a vertical wall is simulated, and the pressure curves are compared with the experiment. Then liquid sloshing problems under different external excitations are simulated, and the complex coupling characteristics can be captured. Finally, the interactions between fluid and floating bodies are researched. The obtained numerical results show good agreement with the results from other sources, and clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented SPH method in modelling fluid–structure interaction problems.
