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, the University of Vigo, the University of Manchester and the University of Rome La Sapienza.


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.
