NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF AN UNDERWATER EXPLOSION BY SPH METHOD
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2016, Vol 61, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents theoretical and practical fundamentals regarding numerical analysis of an underwater explosion. Its parameters and effects upon submerged structures represent the aim of the numerical analysis by Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics (SPH). SPH method is a version of a more general numerical method, named free particle method. The fundamentals of explosion theory and of the SPH method are supposed to be known, so this paper intends to present only the particularities of an underwater explosion and how its parameters and effects can be modeled by SPH method. The example finishing the paper represents an available numerical model for such problems.

MODELING THE EVOLUTION OF FATIGUE FAILURE WITH PERIDYNAMICS
Holes and round notches are locations where fatigue cracks may arrest. Investigating the evolution of fatigue cracks after sinking into such a hole is important. Here we extend a recently proposed fatigue crack peridynam...
VIBRATIONS OF A MICROPADDLE WITH PERIODIC AUXETIC CORE
This paper discusses the vibrations of a micropaddle made from a foil with periodic auxetic core. Two major levels of complexity are discussed in order to understand the structure of this composite, and the auxetic role...
INVARIANT CHARACTERIZING THERMALLY ACTIVATED PLASTIC FLOW
Thermal activation leads to a reduction of the flow stress below the athermal value (the zero Kelvin flow stress). The ratio between the flow stress at a given temperature and the athermal stress (at given material struc...
PROBABILISTIC SEISMIC VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS OF REINFORCED CONCRETE COLUMNS
Estimating the response of reinforced concrete columns to a transitory action, represented by a ground motion, is an uncertain task. The randomness of the seismic event and that of the response should be accounted for. T...
