An Algorithm for Fluid–Solid Coupling Based on SPH Method and Its Preliminary Verification

Based on the fundamental theory of smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH), a feasible algorithm for fluid–solid coupling on interface is applied to describe the dynamic behavior of fluid and solid by utilizing continuum mechanics governing equations. Numerical simulation is conducted based on the proposed SPH model and the fluid–solid interface coupling algorithm, and good agreement is observed with the experiment results. It is shown in the results that the present SPH model is able to effectively and accurately simulate the free-surface flow of fluid, deformation of the elastic solid and the fluid–solid impacting.
