This is the first-ever book on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and its variations, covering the theoretical background, numerical techniques, code implementation issues, and many novel and interesting applications. It contains many appealing and practical examples, including free surface flows, high explosive detonation and explosion, underwater explosion and water mitigation of explosive shocks, high velocity impact and penetration, and multiple scale simulations coupled with the molecular dynamics method. An SPH source code is provided and coupling of SPH and molecular dynamics is...

This is the book first-ever published to date that comprehensively and systematically addresses the major particle methods for modelling different problems in engineering and sciences. It covers different particle methods from small scales to continuum scales, with emphasis focused on three attractive and most popular meshfree particle methods: molecular dynamics, dissipative particle dynamics, and smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The book covers theoretical background, numerical techniques, code implementation, and many interesting, novel, and practical applications in 1) microfluidics and...
