ABSTRACT
We present a new weakly-compressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method capable of modeling non-slip fixed and moving wall boundary conditions. The formulation combines a boundary volume fraction (BVF) wall approach with the transport-velocity SPH method. The resulting method, named SPH-BVF, offers detection of arbitrarily shaped solid walls on-the-fly, with small computational overhead due to its local formulation. This simple framework is capable of solving problems that are difficult or infeasible for standard SPH, namely flows subject to large shear stresses or at moderate Reynolds numbers, and mass transfer in deformable boundaries. In addition, the method extends the transport-velocity formulation to reaction-diffusion transport of mass in Newtonian fluids and linear elastic solids, which is common in biological structures. Taken together, the SPH-BVF method provides a good balance of simplicity and versatility, while avoiding some of the standard obstacles associated with SPH particle penetration at the boundaries, tension instabilities and anisotropic particle alignments, that hamper SPH from being applied to complex problems such as fluid-structure interaction in a biological system.
