This article presents a versatile and robust SPH simulation approach for multiple-fluid flows. The spatial distribution of different phases or components is modeled using the volume fraction representation, the dynamics of multiple-fluid flows is captured by using an improved mixture model, and a stable and accurate SPH formulation is rigorously derived to resolve the complex transport and transformation processes encountered in multiple-fluid flows. The new approach can capture a wide range of shimin@tsinghua.edu.cn.

Various examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
REF introduced the concept of volume fraction into SPH fluid simulation and developed a multiphase-fluid SPH scheme using the mixture model.
