The nonlinear numerical analysis of the impact response of reinforced concrete/mortar beam incorporated with the updated Lagrangian method, namely the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is carried out in this study. The analysis includes the simulation of the effects of high mass low velocity impact load falling on beam structures. Three material models to describe the localized failure of structural elements are: (1) linear pressure-sensitive yield criteria (Drucker-Prager type) in the pre-peak regime for the concrete/mortar meanwhile, the shear strain energy criterion (Von Mises) is applied for the steel reinforcement (2) nonlinear hardening law by means of modified linear Drucker-Prager envelope by employing the plane cap surface to simulate the irreversible plastic behavior of concrete/mortar (3) implementation of linear and nonlinear softening in tension and compression regions, respectively, to express the complex behavior of concrete material during short time loading condition. Validation upon existing experimental test results is conducted, from which the impact behavior of concrete beams are best described using the SPH model adopting an average velocity and erosion algorithm, where instability in terms of numerical fragmentation is reduced considerably.

The formulation of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and a shortcoming of traditional SPH in contact simulation are presented. A contact algorithm is proposed to treat contact phenomenon between two objects. We describe the boundary of the objects with non-mass artificial particles and set vectors normal to the contact surface. Contact criterion using non-mass particles is established in this study. In order to verify the contact algorithm, an algorithm is implemented in to an in-house program; elastic wave propagation is an analysed under low velocity axial impact of two rods. The results show that the contact algorithm eliminates the undesirable phenomena at the contact surface; numerical result with the contact algorithm is compared with theoretical one.

SPH is the shorthand for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics. This method is a Lagrangian method which means that it involves following the motion of elements of fluid. These elements have the characteristics of particles and the method is called a particle method. A useful review of SPH (Monaghan 1992) gives the basic technique and how it can be applied to numerous problems relevant to astrophysics. You can get some basic SPH programs from http) /www.maths.monash.edu.au/jjm/sphlect In the present lecture I will assume that the student has studied this review and therefore understands the basic principles. In today's lecture I plan to approach the equations from a different perspective by using a variational principle.

Even though there is a great deal of progress in a numerical method of high caliber like SPH, it is very rarely deployed in a water resources community. Despite the great stride in computing environment, depth averaged approach like a nonlinear shallow equation is still efficient tool for flood routing in large watershed, but it can give some misleading information like the inundation height of flood. In this rationale, we numerically simulate the flow into the dry channel, dry channel with an obstacle triggered by the collapse of a two dimensional water column using SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) in order to boost the application of numerical method of high caliber like SPH in a water resources community. As a most severe test of the robustness of SPH, we also carry out the simulation of the flow through a clearance into the wet channel driven by the rapid removal of a water gate. As a hydrodynamic model, we used the Navier-Stokes equation, a numerical integration of which was carried out using SPH. To verify the validity of newly proposed numerical model, we compare the numerically simulated flow with the others in the literature mainly from VOF and MAC, and hydraulic experiments by Martin and Moyce (1952), Koshizuka et al. (1995) and Janosi et al. (2004). It was shown that agreements between the numerical results in this study and hydraulic experiments are remarkable.

In this paper, a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is extended to simulate the ice failure process and ice-ship interactions. The softening elastoplastic model integrating Drucker-Prager yield criterion is embedded into the SPH method to simulate the failure progress of ice. To verify the accuracy of the proposed SPH method, two benchmarks are presented, which include the elastic vibration of a cantilever beam and three-point bending failure of the ice beam. The good agreement between the obtained numerical results and experimental data indicates that the presented SPH method can give the reliable and accurate results for simulating the ice failure progress. On this basis, the extended SPH method is employed to simulate level ice interacting with sloping structure and three-dimensional ice-ship interaction in level ice, and the numerical data is validated through comparing with experimental results of a 1:20 scaled Araon icebreaker model. It is shown the proposed SPH model can satisfactorily predict the ice breaking process and ice breaking resistance on ships in ice-ship interaction.

The main purpose of this study is to compare the bird strike analysis result of the radome composed of composite laminate and sandwich structure attached to aircraft with test result. First of all, we generated bird model which has water properties through SPH(Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) method. And then bird strike analysis was conducted with initial velocity of bird measured from bird strike test. From analysis result we investigated whether structural failure occurred or not onto the radome and compare maximum displacement of the radome structure with test result. Also reliability of numerical analysis model was confirmed through time-dependent pressure trend on this collision process matched existing research result. Furthermore, we confirmed that failure behavior of the radome can be affected by density of the particles in the bird model.

최근 기존의 격자방식의 해석 방법을 벗어나 해석 영역에 대한 분할을 별도로 고려치 않는 수치기법의 실무적 적용사례가 증가 하고 있으며, 이러한 방식중 SPH(Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) 방식이 근자에 수자원 분야에서도 도입되어 관수로 및 개수로 해석 또는 복합해석 등에 활용된 바 있다. 최초 도입된 무격자방식의 모형들은 주로 복잡한 형상을 지니는 유체기계 등에 활용성이 높았던 바, 큰 규모의 해석 도메인을 가지는 수자원 분야에서의 SPH의 실무적용 평가와 효율성의 확보를 위해서, 본 연구는 국내 댐을 시범 대상으로 하여 SPH 수치해석 툴을 적용하고자 하였다. 분석 대상댐은 국내 P댐으로서 관리수위의 변동은 크지 않으나, 댐 직상류의 만곡이 심하고 다수의 대규모 취수구를 가진 곳으로 상시 발전방류 및 수시 댐 수문방류에 의해 유체의 흐름이 2,3차원의 복잡성을 띄고있기 때문에, 3차원 전산유체역학 Tool의 적용이 적절한 것으로 판단하였다. 해석을 위해 하류경계조건을 댐축과 문비로 설정하였고 상류 1km까지를 해석의 도메인으로 설정하였다. 소요시간을 줄이기 위해 여러 번의 모의를 거쳐 입자의 평균 입경은 0.6m로 제안하고 시격은 1초 미만(평균 0.5초)로 설정하였다. 수문 및 발전방류는 해당댐의 1~2년 빈도 수준에 해당하는 $5,000m^3/s$ 이하의 유량을 기준으로 하여 모의를 수행하였다. 모의의 안정성을 확보한 이후에는 해당 댐지역의 하류영향을 고려한 문비제어를 반영한 다양한 방식의 수문운영 및 취수지점의 순간 수위 영향을 검토하였다. 그 결과로 본 모의에서는 특정한 수문의 운영 조건에서는 댐수위 계측지점과 인근 취수지점 간에도 0.2m 수준의 순간 수위차가 발생할 수 있음을 보였으며, 이는 경우에 따라 취수시설의 일시적 장애요소로 발생할 수 있음을 의미한다. 따라서, 현재의 취수구조물과 문비운영 특성에 따라 발생가능한 취수장애를 줄일 수 있는 운영조건의 탐색을 위해서 수치모의를 추가로 하였으며, 이 때 댐축 상류의 유속분포에 대한 추가 검토도 수행하였다. 다만, 댐에서 방류시 하류조건에 대한 검토는 추후 보강되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Physics-based graphic techniques are used when simulating and rendering natural phenomena such as smoke, water and flame with computational physics. We propose novel methods which render simulated particle data fast onto 3D using tetrahedron splat. We calculate the position and the normal vector of splat by SPH(smoothed particle hydrodynamics) method then we reconstruct splat into quadrangular pyramid to reduce seam. We implement this technique for SPH fluid simulation, and animate natural flow of water successfully.

The aim of this paper is to conduct a hydrodynamic analysis of fluid flow over different weir types using the analytical solution, the physical model taken from another article, and numericalsimulations through the Smoothed particle hydrodynamic method (SPH) using the compiled DualSPHysics source code. The paper covers the field of real fluid dynamics that includes a description of different proposed types of weirs in various flow regimes and the optimal solution for the most efficiency structure shape. A detailed presentation of the method, the structure and it's characteristics are included. Apart from the single stepped weir, two other weir types are proposed: a Divided type and a Downstream slopped type. All of them are modeled using the SPH method.
