Dear Everyone,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out for assistance with debugging my code, as I have been unable to replicate Figure 4 from the reference paper, Three SPH Novel Benchmark Test Cases for Free Surface Flows by Botia-Vera et al. Despite multiple attempts, I haven't been able to reproduce the first peak pressure profile for lateral impact with water in the various tank thicknesses (0.5X, 1X, and 2X).
I’ve attached my code to this email, which includes the setup and implementation based on the test case details from the paper. It appears that my pressure distributions and dynamics differ significantly from those presented in Figure 4.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could take a look at my code and help identify where things might be going wrong. Any insights or suggestions on improving the replication of the results would be invaluable.
Looking forward to your feedback!
Best regards,
