A consistent δ-Plus-ULPH model towards higher accuracy and lower numerical dissipation with fewer neighboring particles
Shi-Xian Wu, Peng-Nan Sun, Xiao-Ting Huang +2
This paper proposes a novel consistent δ+- Updated Lagrangian Particle Hydrodynamics (ULPH) model. Although the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) model has gained recognized ac…
Extension of the consistent -SPH model for multiphase flows considering the compressibility of different phases
Xiao-Ting Huang, Peng-Nan Sun, Hong-Guan Lyu +2
In hydrodynamic problems involving wave impact on structures, air compressibility is crucial for accurate pressure prediction when an air bubble is entrapped. In this work, the con…
High-speed ditching of double curvature specimens with cavitation and ventilation
Emanuele Spinosa, Silvano Grizzi, Alessandro Iafrati
The water entry at high horizontal speed of double-curvature specimens, reproducing the rear part of the fuselage that first gets in contact with the water during aircraft ditching…
A Scoping Review on Simulation-based Design Optimization in Marine Engineering: Trends, Best Practices, and Gaps
Andrea Serani, Thomas Scholcz, Valentina Vanzi
This scoping review assesses the current use of simulation-based design optimization (SBDO) in marine engineering, focusing on identifying research trends, methodologies, and appli…
Hydrodynamic analysis of the water landing phase of aircraft fuselages at constant speed and fixed attitude
