Interesting project: DesignSPHysics fluid simulator

[bernd]

wow ... would it be possible to extract the stress on the sourroundings with all this wave simulations? This is what would be interesting for an structural enginneer.

Ahh, are there people doing avalange models with this solver too? Would be even more interesting for me, because in Switzerland we only have ozean waves if Germany is flooded (land unter). I don't belive this will happen ... But we do have averlanges quit a lot after heavy snow falls.

@Bernd:
The dualsphpysics-solver does not compute stresses like FEM.
The Isosurface-tool is for better visualisation only.
You can simulate avalanches with SPH-Method (lets try it).

cool, btw the guy from the avalange video works in zürich too, like me. But he is on ETH.

Sorry for hijacking the thread but I felt I had to share this:

@fosselius: thanks for the video, cool stuff! (I will try to simulate how to put ketchup on a hot-dog...)
Played with the dualsphysics-wb, 10 cm icecube falling into water
(I used a low number of points, that is the reason why it seems that the cube "hovers" above the fluid)
There are several (minor) bugs in the dualsphysics-gui. However, it works.
There is an addon for Blender to import the generated vtk-files.

So: in general, it should be possible (extreme fine point cloud, enough computing power)
to generate cool visualizations like this:

BTW: what you see in YT-example is a modified testcase from the dualsphysics example files....

I try to run a very simple simulation (falling water cube) to play with the
viscosity parameter. But i cant get it running. The simulation always breaks with
"particle outside domain" error (the computation domain is the red frame, the box is closed!)
ZIP contains Freecad-input dualsphysics macro files, run.bat, case.xml
Help welcome, Thomas

Hi there! This is my first post in this thread. The user luzpaz notified me in an issue, I didn't even know this was here!

So I'm seeing you are testing a lot of interesting things, I hope to solve your doubts and I'll check and write regularly over here.

I try to run a very simple simulation (falling water cube) to play with ...

So starting over here: I've checked your simulation and the problem is that you have set the walls as floating boundaries. Floating boundaries move in the simulation, obeying gravity and floating calculations. The problem is caused because the boundary just falls down into the void, crossing the Case Limits. That's why the error says Some floating particle was found outside the domain.

If you really want the box to move and float, just put it inside another box or something like that... haha. There is probably a better solution but I'm not really a dualsphysics user (in fact I don't know anything about the code and physics involved). I'll try to resolve doubts and take suggestions on the GUI matter.

Aaaah...I havent checked that...

HII! i´m new here, please i need help...
Basically i dont can run my simulation... when i click on Run (CPU option) Error window say

Hi Steban,
I used dualsphysics only a few times and just for fun (month ago)
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=26675
For me, openfoam is the better way. You should post a help request in the
dualsphysics forum with a link to this thread.
http://dual.sphysics.org/vanilla/
Another problem is: for running a cool simulation like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnLTWUk6wPc
you need a very fast machine with gpu computing. Which i dont have.
And you must know how to use blender for rendering.
