Three-Dimensional Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Method for Simulating Free Surface Flows

In this paper, we applied an improved Smoothing Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method by using gradient kernel renormalization in three-dimensional cases. The purpose of gradient kernel renormalization is to improve the accuracy of numerical simulation by improving gradient kernel approximation. This method is implemented for simulating free surface flows, in particular dam break case with rigid ball structures and the propagation of waves towards a slope in a rectangular tank.
