    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.86, No.3, pp. 199-224, 2012, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2012.086.199

    Abstract This paper presents a numerical procedure to model surface tension using the Generalized Interpolation Material Point (GIMP) method which employs a background mesh in solving the equations of motion. The force due to surface tension is formulated at the mesh grid points by using the continuum surface force (CSF) model and then added to the equations of motion at each grid point. In GIMP, we use the grid mass as the color function in CSF and apply a moving average smoothing scheme to the grid mass to improve the accuracy in calculating the surface interface. More >
