Application aspects of the meshless SPH methodVesenjak, Matej (Avtor) Ren, Zoran (Avtor) computational mechanicssmoothed particel hydrodynamicsfluid sloshingcellular structureComputational simulations have become an indispensable tool for solving complex problems in engineering and science. One of the new computational techniques are the meshless methods, covering several application fields in engineering. In this paper the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method and its implementation in the explicit finite element code LS-DYNA is discussed. Its application and efficiency is shown with two practical engineering application examples. The first example describes the modeling of fuel sloshing in a reservoir, where different formulations, using mesh-based and meshless methods, are compared and evaluated according to experimental measurements. The second example describes the impact analysis of a cellular structure, where the influence of viscous fluid pore filler flow has been studied. The SPH method proved to become a reliable and efficient tool, especially for solving large scale and advanced engineering problems.20072012-05-31 11:48:17Neznano26073UDK: 531.1:004.925.84COBISS_ID: 12472598ISSN pri članku: 1820-6530NUK URN: URN:SI:UM:DK:ZOPIKFCXsl
