Reply To: Body hitting a net, SPH and Lagrangian approach

[Ram Gopisetti]

Hi Otokemo, 

Have you used any  nodes_to_surface contact between SPH ( MAT_NULL+EOS)and Beams with adjusted penalty factors for contact to be detectable with a very fine particle count ( at least three or more particles covering the beam elements to get collisions)  with this approach, you might get something like follows:

I do not suggest to use solid elements here to represent the fluid part,  You can try with the solid net elements and see how it goes.  

Cheers, Ram
