SPH explicit dynamics -AUTODYN water leakage from tank

harsf

I have given earthquake loading as acceleration vs time for a water tank to observe sloshing. AUTODYN solver is used analysis type of explicit dynamics. using SPH, water particle sizes are far smaller than the tank FEM solid elements.

water leakage occurs as you can see in the figure. Can someone help me to deal with this?

There may be other ways to stop the leak, but one way that should work is to go back to CAD and put a blend radius on all the corners and edges so that there is a spherical radius in the corner instead of a sharp point.

HI,

I will upload the result as the programme still runs. Thanks in advance.
