TI - Particle-based Simulations of Flows with Free Surfaces Using Hyperbolic-typeWeighting Functions T2 - Computer Modeling in Engineering \& Sciences PY - 2014 VL - 103 IS - 4 SN - 1526-1506 AB - In this paper, we present the application of the particle-based simulations to complicated fluid flow problem with free surfaces. The particle approach is based on the MPS (Moving Particle Simulation) method using hyperbolic-type weighting function to stabilize the spurious oscillatory solutions for solving the Poisson equation with respect to the pressure fields. The hyperbolic-type weighting function is constructed by differentiating the characteristic function based on neural network framework. The weighting function proposed herein is collaterally applied to the kernel function in the SPH-framework. Numerical results demonstrate the workability and validity of the present MPS approach through the dambreaking flow problem.
