Abstract
In this work, the meshless Lagrangian Finite Pointset Method was integrated into an aircraft pre-design process chain and used for the simulation of the interaction between the water and the structure during ditching. To assess the applicability of the method, results from simulations were compared with experimental data from water impact tests of curved panels and scaled models. In addition, the method was implemented in ditching simulations using a generic mid-range aircraft model. Results are analyzed in terms of accuracy, flexibility, and performance.
