Particle-based CFD (computational fluid dynamics) methods have become very popular in recent years due to the simplicity of the model configuration process and the ability to solve free surface problems such as splashing.
One of the methods for free-surface problems is called moving particle simulation (MPS) and is frequently used in the automotive industry to evaluate splash patterns and churning losses in gearboxes.
