Abstract
This study develops a parallel solver of free-surface flow based on a mesh-free particle method, the explicit MPS method, with polygon boundary representation. We adopt the explicitly represented polygon (ERP) wall boundary model, which expresses wall boundaries as arbitrarily shaped triangular polygons. A bucket-based domain decomposition algorithm for dynamic load balancing is expanded to the polygon-based computation of the ERP model. The validity and parallel efficiency of the developed solver are tested by analyzing a dam break problem, and the numerical results are compared with experimental results. Our developed solver can simplify the evaluation of the integrity of coastal structures since it can be easily connected to finite element analyses of the structures.
