We present an analysis of star-forming gas cores in an SPH simulation of a Giant Molecular Cloud. We identify cores using their deep potential wells. This yields a smoother distribution with clearer boundaries than density. Additionally,…

We present a 'two-fluid' implementation of dust in smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) in the test particle limit. The scheme is able to handle both short and long stopping times and reproduces the short friction time limit, which is not…

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) methods are advantageous in simulations of fluids in domains with free boundary. Special SPH methods have also been developed to simulate solids. However, there are situations where the matter behaves…

We study the formation of Pop III stars by performing radiation hydrodynamics simulations for three different initial clouds extracted from cosmological hydrodynamics simulations. Starting from the cloud collapse stage, we follow the growth…

In this paper we present solutions to three short comings of Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics (SPH) encountered in previous work when applying it to Giant Impacts. First we introduce a novel method to obtain accurate SPH representations of…

We present a new approach to simulating mixtures of gas and dust in smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). We show how the two-fluid equations can be rewritten to describe a single-fluid 'mixture' moving with the barycentric velocity, with…

We study low-metallicity star formation with a set of high-resolution hydrodynamics simulations for various gas metallicities over a wide range $0$--$10^{-3} \ {\rm Z}_{\bigodot}$. Our simulations follow non-equilibrium chemistry and…

We compare two techniques for following the cooling of gas and its condensation into galaxies within high resolution simulations of cosmologically representative regions. Both techniques treat the dark matter using N-body methods. One…

We present the smoothed-particle hydrodynamics implementation SPHGal, which combines some recently proposed improvements in GADGET. This includes a pressure-entropy formulation with a Wendland kernel, a higher order estimate of velocity…

We present results of hydrodynamic simulations of star formation triggered by cloud-cloud collisions. During the early stages of star formation, low-mass objects form by gravitational instabilities in protostellar discs. A number of these…

We investigate the means by which cold gas can accrete onto Milky Way mass galaxies from a hot corona of gas, using a new smoothed particle hydrodynamics code, 'SPHS'. We find that the 'cold clumps' seen in many classic SPH simulations in…

We study the formation of giant dense cloud complexes and of stars within them by means of SPH numerical simulations of the mildly supersonic collision of gas streams (``inflows'') in the warm neutral medium (WNM). The resulting…

We employ a multi-phase smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method to study droplet dynamics in shear flow. With an extensive range of Reynolds number, capillary number, wall confinement, and density/viscosity ratio between the droplet…

We present a detailed study of the collapse of molecular cloud cores using high resolution 3D adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) numerical simulations. In this first in a series of investigations our initial conditions consists of spherical…

A numerical method based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics with adaptive spatial resolution (SPH-ASR) was developed for simulating free surface flows. This method can reduce the computational demands while maintaining the numerical…

We test and improve the numerical schemes in our smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code for cosmological simulations, including the pressure-entropy formulation (PESPH), a time-dependent artificial viscosity, a refined timestep…

We review the current status of compact object simulations that are based on the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The first main part of this review is dedicated to SPH as a numerical method. We begin by discussing relevant…

Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) employs an artificial viscosity to properly capture hydrodynamical shock waves. In its original formulation, the resulting numerical viscosity is large enough to suppress structure in the velocity field…

The hydrodynamics of collisions and mergers of main-sequence stars is discussed in the light of recent 3-D calculations using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Theoretical models for the formation of blue stragglers are…

We present high-resolution 3D smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations of the formation and evolution of protostellar discs in a turbulent molecular cloud. Using a piecewise polytropic equation of state, we perform two sets of…
