We present a Pressure-Oscillation-Free projection algorithm for large-density-ratio multiphase fluid-structure interaction simulations, implemented on a non-staggered Cartesian grid. The incompressible Navier-Stokes is decoupled with an improved five-step incremental pressure correction algorithm. Fluid-fluid interface is captured using the Cahn-Hilliard equation, and the surface tension model is coupled with a momentum-weighted interpolation scheme to suppress unphysical pressure oscillations, ensuring accurate e…
