This paper aims at providing a state-of-the-art review on the applications of particle methods
in hydrodynamics-related problems in ocean and coastal engineering. The problems are …

This paper reviews the developments and applications of meshfree method based on MLPG
(Meshless Local Petrov Galerkin) in ocean engineering, primarily from the work carried out …

Complex multiphase flow problems in ocean engineering have long been challenging
topics. Problems such as large deformations at interfaces, multi-media interfaces, and …

In the present work, the single-phase and weakly-compressible δ-SPH model is further
extended to simulate multiphase and strongly-compressible flows. This is motivated by the …

The Lagrangian moving particle semi‐implicit (MPS) method has potential to simulate free‐
surface and multiphase flows. However, the chaotic distribution of particles can decrease …

The reliable prediction of plunging wave induced load, which represents a challenging task
in offshore engineering, is of key relevance for the safety of existing offshore structures as …

In this paper, we propose a novel meshfree Generalized Finite Difference Method (GFDM)
approach to discretize PDEs defined on manifolds. Derivative approximations for the same …

The plunging wave impacts on a box-shape structure are investigated experimentally and
numerically, focusing on three typical scenarios with distinct features, ie the wave impact …

The non-resonant and resonant responses of a two-layer liquid system in a tank under pitch
excitation were investigated experimentally in this study. The movement of both the free …

We propose a novel framework to solve PDEs on moving manifolds, where the evolving
surface is represented by a moving point cloud. This has the advantage of avoiding the need …
