To simulate the dynamics of two-dimensional dam-break flow on a dry horizontal bed, we use a smoothed particle hydrodynamics model implementing two advanced boundary treatment techniques: (i) a semi-analytical approach, based on the computation of volume integrals within the truncated portions of the kernel supports at boundaries and (ii) an extension of the ghost-particle boundary method for mobile boundaries, adapted to free-slip conditions. The trends of the free surface along the channel, and of the impact wave pressures on the downstream vertical wall, were first validated against an experimental case study and then compared with other numerical solutions. The two boundary treatment schemes accurately predicted the overall shape of the primary wave front advancing along the dry bed until its impact with the downstream vertical wall. Compared to data from numerical models in the literature, the present results showed a closer fit to an experimental secondary wave, reflected by the downstream wall and characterized by complex vortex structures. The results showed the reliability of both the proposed boundary condition schemes in resolving violent wave breaking and impact events of a practical dam-break application, producing smooth pressure fields and accurately predicting pressure and water level peaks.
