The accurate numerical modelling of two-phase, immiscible fluid flows is of interest to a wide range of practical engineering applications. Examples include fuel containment and liquid sloshing in space vehicles or automotive/aircraft fuel tanks, vehicle wading, nautical liquid containment, ship hydrodynamics and water splash phenomena. This paper is concerned with the development of numerical methodologies for the simulation of such flows which also involve boundary movement, e.g. container vehicle movement, free surface penetration by a solid object, or fuel tank impact modelling. To this end we implement the coupling of a two-phase model with two contemporary methods for mesh generation and mesh movement, namely a dimensionally-split Cartesian cut-cell method and a Riemann ghost-fluid method. The relative merits of the two approaches are compared in the context of free surface liquid flows interacting with solid structures.
