The impact of a laser pulse onto a liquid metal droplet is numerically investigated by utilising a weakly compressible single phase model; the thermodynamic closure is achieved by the Tait equation of state (EoS) for the liquid metal. The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. which has been employed in the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) framework. offers numerical efficie... https://www.lightemupsequences.com/
