In this model an oscillation piston creates waves within a 250 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm tank. A solid block of 900 kg/m^3 density floats on one side of the tank and capsizes under the influence of the standing waves.The color of each fluid particle corresponds to its velocity magnitude (m/s) at each time step.
In this model a fluid is initially held in a block configuration. At the first time step the fluid is allowed to flow out due to the force of gravity. As if flows outward it crashes into a rectangular block and interacts with the boundary walls. The color of each fluid particle corresponds to its velocity magnitude (m/s) at each time step.
