However, there are still some complex mechanical problems with large deformations of water–soil interfaces to be solved. As a particle-based Lagrangian method, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is good at solving multiphase problems with large deformations of boundaries or interfaces. Therefore, in this work, the [Formula: see text]-SPH method is extended for the simulation of fluid–soil interacting problems. First, based on the weakly compressible assumption, the water is modeled as a viscous fluid while the soil is considered as a material with elastic–perfectly plastic behaviors. The [Formula: see text]-SPH method is implemented on the two phases separately, while the stress diffusive term only acts on the soil. The seepage force is introduced to model the interaction between two phases. After that, several numerical test cases with small to large interface deformations are presented. It is shown that the fluid–soil interacting model based on the [Formula: see text]-SPH model gives satisfying results compared with experimental data. Finally, the model is further extended for the simulation of vertical or oblique water jet scouring problems which demonstrates the potential applications of the SPH model for complex engineering problems.","PeriodicalId":475980,"journal":{"name":"International journal of ocean and coastal engineering","volume":"5 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139445886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cylinders are important components of various marine structures such as piers of sea-crossing bridge, columns of oil and gas platforms and subsea pipelines. In this study, the interaction of solitary wave with a submerged horizontal cylinder and a surface-piercing vertical cylinder are numerically studied by the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) code SPHinXsys. SPHinXsys is an open-source multi-physics library based on the weakly compressible SPH and invokes the low-dissipation Riemann solver for alleviating numerical noises in the simulation of fluid dynamics. The capability of SPHinXsys in reproducing the fluid fields of solitary wave propagating through cylinders is demonstrated by comparing with the experimental data. With the validation in hand, the features of the wave–structure process are examined.","PeriodicalId":475980,"journal":{"name":"International journal of ocean and coastal engineering","volume":"29 116","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135541382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
