Summary: In this paper, a GPU implementation of adaptive particle refinement (APR) in the SPH framework is used to simulate multi-phase flow and fluid-structure coupling. The authors present SPH models for multi-phase flow and fluid-structure coupling based on the Riemann solver and use a local particle refinement technique to split particles. They propose a particle shifting technique to regularize the particle distribution and use a dynamic resource management algorithm for efficient GPU-accelerated APR. Precision analysis shows the effect of fine and coarse particle smooth length ratio on numerical accuracy. Tests demonstrate that the proposed GPU-accelerated APR is accurate and stable with low computational cost and comparable precision compared to uniform particles.

Summary: In this study, a freezing model is incorporated into a multiphase smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) formulation to enrich the calculation method of supercooled large droplets (SLD) impingement and solidification. The model is validated against experimental data and applied to test cases with different supercooling degrees and impact speeds to investigate their effects on residual ice layers. This research provides a comprehensive toolset for parametric studies of single SLD impingement and solidification and paves the way for macroscopic models in in-flight icing CFD codes.

By sampling solids as boundary particles and optimizing the calculation formula of interaction forces, fluid particles interact directly with the boundary in an iterative manner, improving the physical accuracy of the simulation.

Summary: This paper presents an improved failure model for brittle fracture simulation using the mesh-less Lattice Particle Method (LPM). By utilizing the Remove Bond (RB) approach, a new formulation is developed to predict the mode-I Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) near the crack tip more accurately than the conventional Remove Particle (RP) approach. Benchmark test cases are conducted to verify the numerical accuracy and convergence of the proposed method. Furthermore, the LPM method is combined with the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method to study Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) problems involving solid fracture and free surface. The coupled SPH-LPM method is implemented in the open-source code, DualSPHysics, and can effectively model fracture phenomena caused by natural hazards.

Summary: This study develops a coupling method based on superquadric elements to describe the interaction between non-spherical solid particles and fluids. The discrete element method (DEM) and smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) are used to simulate granular materials and fluids, respectively. The coupling force is calculated using a repulsive force model, and a contact detection method is established to capture the shape of the superquadric element and calculate the distance between the fluid particle and the surface of the superquadric element. Simulation cases verify the validity of the proposed coupling method, which accurately represents the water entry process of spherical solid particles and can simulate fluid-particle systems with solid particles of multiple shapes.
