The Cosmological simulation code GADGET-2

TL;DR: GADGET-2 as mentioned in this paper is a massively parallel tree-SPH code, capable of following a collisionless fluid with the N-body method, and an ideal gas by means of smoothed particle hydrodynamics.

Element‐free Galerkin methods

TL;DR: In this article, an element-free Galerkin method which is applicable to arbitrary shapes but requires only nodal data is applied to elasticity and heat conduction problems, where moving least-squares interpolants are used to construct the trial and test functions for the variational principle.

Smoothed particle hydrodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the theory and application of Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) since its inception in 1977 are discussed, focusing on the strengths and weaknesses, the analogy with particle dynamics and the numerous areas where SPH has been successfully applied.

Reproducing kernel particle methods

TL;DR: A new continuous reproducing kernel interpolation function which explores the attractive features of the flexible time-frequency and space-wave number localization of a window function is developed and is called the reproducingkernel particle method (RKPM).

How do galaxies get their gas

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that at low z < 1, the cosmic star formation rate degrades due to geometry, as the typical cross section of filaments begins to exceed that of the galaxies at their intersections.
