Open-Source Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics code
The SPHYSICS Code
SPHYSICS is a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) code inspired by the formulation of Monaghan (1992) developed jointly by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University (U.S.A.), the University of Vigo (Spain), the University of Manchester (U.K.) and the University of Rome La Sapienza (Italy). We are now delighted to announce that this code is officially released as version 1.0.
This code version is the a basic version and incorporates the following features:
The code has been developed over a number of years primarily to study free-surface flow phenomena where Eulerian methods can be difficult to apply, such as waves, impact on dams, off-shore. Furthermore, the meshfree technique facilitates the simulation of highly distorted fluids/bodies.
Extensions of the code are already underway to add the following features to the SPHYSICS code
Oh, and England are never going to win the world cup!
