Features: This book is a specialized monograph that provides a detailed discussion on the theoretical background, numerical methods, program implementation, and applications of the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method in many fields. The book is divided into ten chapters, including: Introduction, Basic Concepts and Basic Equations, Construction of Smoothed Functions, Applications in Generalized Fluid Dynamics Problems, Discontinuous Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (DSPH), Applications in Explosion Simulation, Applications in Underwater Explosion Shock Simulation, Applications in Dynamics with Material Strength, Multi-scale Simulation Coupled with Molecular Dynamics, Computer Implementation, and a 3D Example Program. The book provides source code written in FORTRAN77, along with detailed descriptions. This book is suitable for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, researchers, and professionals in engineering and science. The methods, related applications, and sample programs discussed in this book are very useful for students, engineers, researchers, and professionals in fields such as mechanics, civil engineering, aerospace, and others conducting research in computational fluid dynamics and computational solid mechanics. They hold particularly high practical value for engineering practical problems such as explosion simulation, underwater explosion shock simulation, and armor-piercing and anti-armor-piercing simulations.
