  Hi All,
  
  I was wondering if anyone has or if Autodyn has the capacity to say float a piece of wood in water by modelling both the wood and water using SPH particles? The student addition only allows 1-SPH body so I cannot directly simulate this myself.

  Autodyn tends to be used for high speed contact (plus a few other things like that). What are you trying to find out?

  Hi rwoolhou, specifically I am trying to simulate debris entrained in water modeling both the debris and water as SPH.

  So the debris is hitting the water at speed?

  Actually the opposite, the water is hitting the debris at speed, I am trying to simulate a dam break wave impacting a debris and entraining the debris in the flow.
