    Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) Training Manual

    • Relatively new technique for solving computational continuum dynamics


    problems
    • Continuum represented by arbitrary lattice of interacting particles (or
    interpolation points)
    • No numerical grid
    – No grid tangling problems (as in Lagrange)

    – No need for erosion

    • Lagrangian Technique
    – Efficient - only need to model regions where material exists

    – Good at tracking material interfaces

    – Complex constitutive models can be included

    • SPH particles can interact with Lagrange, Shell and ALE parts through
    standard interaction logic

    SPH – Lagrange Joins Training Manual

    • SPH requires significantly more computation than Lagrange


    • Accurate SPH simulations require uniformly sized particles throughout the
    SPH region
    • Joining SPH to Lagrange allows material in low deformation regions to be
    modelled using the Lagrange solver
    – The mesh in these regions can also be graded to reduce the overall size of the problem
    • Available for 2D and 3D “Box” type objects with rectangular edge packing
