Smooth particle hydrodynamics: The SPHINX and SPHC codes
Abstract
Smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is a new computational technique well suited to computation of hypervelocity impact phenomena. This paper reviews the characteristics, philosophy, and a bit of the derivation of the method. As illustrations of the technique, several test case computations and several application computations are shown.
