Abstract In this work, a particle regeneration technique is developed for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). In traditional SPH, the particle disorder phenomenon will occur when dealing with the strongly compressible flow problem. To solve this, in the present work, uniformly distributed background particles filled in the computational domain are adopted. The particle regeneration technique is that the fluid particles replaced by the background particles when the fluid density changes to a specific limitation. The fluid variables of the background particles are approximated by the fluid variables of the initial particles in their support domain. For the multiphase flow, the multiphase interface is calculated by an interface reproducing algorithm, in which, we defined an indicator variable, and set the indicator value discontinuity between different materials. By setting the threshold value, the multiphase interface is reconstructed. Meanwhile, the momentum equation for the Riemann SPH is modified to eliminate the instability in the light phase. Several numerical examples are studied to verify the present algorithm.
