3. 2. Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Simulation for Continuous Casting

   University essay from KTH/Matematik (Inst.)

   Author : Adithya Vijaykumar; [2012]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis proposes a way of simulating the continuous casting process of steel using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). It deals with the SPH modeling of mass, momentum and the energy equations. The interpolation kernel functions required for the SPH modeling of these equations are calculated. READ MORE
