Sure, here’s an example program using the PySPH library to simulate fluid mechanics. In this example, we simulate the flow of an incompressible fluid around a cylinder using the Navier-Stokes equations.

This program sets up the particle arrays for the fluid and the cylinder using the get_particle_array function from PySPH. We then set up the equations for the simulation, including the Navier-Stokes equations for the fluid and the rigid body motion equations for the cylinder. Finally, we use the WCSPHScheme class from PySPH to integrate the equations over time and obtain the simulation results.
This example simulates the flow of an incompressible fluid around a cylinder using the weakly compressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (WCSPH) method. The fluid is initialized with a density and viscosity, and a velocity profile that
