The smoothed particle hydrodynamics（SPH）, as a particle based method, is for solving problems of fast moving boundaries in the field of continuum mechanics.

In the present work, we use the SPH and the DEM to simulate tsunamis generated by rigid and deformable landslides with consideration of submerged conditions. The viscous free-surface flows are solved by a weakly compressible SPH and the displacement and the rotation of the rigid body slides are calculated using a multi-sphere DEM allowing for modeling solids of arbitrarily complex shapes. The fluid-solid interactions are simulated by coupling the SPH and the DEM. A rheology model combining the Papanastasiou and the Herschel-Bulkley models is applied to represent the viscoplastic behavior of the non-Newtonian flow in the submarine deformable landslide cases. Submarine landslide tsunamis due to rigid and deformable landslides are both simulated as typical landslide cases in this investigation. Our simulated results and the previous experimental results in the literatures are in good agreement, which shows that the proposed particle based methods are capable of modeling the submarine landslide tsunamis.展开更多
