The application of smooth particle hydrodynamics to the modelling of solid materials

This thesis explores the mesh-free computer modelling technique of Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), and explores its usage in solid mechanics applications. A review of the context in which SPH can be used, the theory behind the governing equations and the adaptations carried out to enable elasti...
