About SPHERIC

The SPHERIC workshop is a yearly gathering of experts in the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulation method. They exchange ideas and discuss their efforts in research and development, as well as industrial applications. It is the only international event that exclusively focuses on SPH and associated particle-based methods.

SPH has been widely adopted in various fields, including computational fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, geomechanics, manufacturing engineering, and other related disciplines. It is considered the state-of-the-art method for free-surface flows, multi-phase flows, high non-linear deformation, fracture and fragmentation, and complex physics due to its meshless and particle-based nature.

The 18th International Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Research and Engineering International Community Workshop will be organized by Dive Solutions in Berlin, Germany. On behalf of the organizing committee, we cordially invite you to SPHERIC 2024. We are looking forward to welcoming you and sharing an insightful and enjoyable event.

SPH Science Meets Industry​

In this edition of the SPHERIC workshop, we’ll shed more light on industry applications of SPH, particularly in engineering fields such as industrial manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and more.

Thanks to SPHERIC’s mission to push the research and development of SPH, among others, it has become an effective computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method in simulation engineering. Dive, the host of SPHERIC 2024, has made SPH simulation software accessible and comprehensible to engineering companies worldwide.

We welcome industry leaders, academic researchers and students to attend.
