The <strong>Incompressible</strong> SPH Code<br />

THe incompressible SPH program is coded based on the original Weakly<br />

Compressible SPH (WCSPH) code SPHysics [121]. In SPHysics, the<br />

pressure field is calculated from a state equation without solving the pres-<br />

sure Poisson equation. This code is an open-source SPH code that has been<br />

released in 1 Aug 2007, developed jointly by researchers at the Johns Hop-<br />

kins University (U.S.A.), the University of Vigo (Spain), the University of<br />

Manchester (U.K.) and the University of Rome La Sapienza (Italy) [121].<br />

Version 1.4 and below contains the basic SPH formulation for free-surface<br />

flows. The 2-D & 3-D code has been developed specifically for free-surface<br />

hydrodynamics. The structure of the weakly compressible code SPHysics<br />

can be referred to Appendix A and [31].<br />

Based on the code SPHysics, an ISPH code is programmed. Both Laplacian<br />

operators shown in §2.1.2 are built. Two linear solvers, namely Conjugated<br />

Gradient (CG) and Bi-Conjugated Gradient (Bi-CGSTAB), are programmed.<br />

The predictor-corrector time marching scheme is applied.<br />
