The phenomenon of a water mound can show up in the process of water-exit of the missile [1], and the a water mound will break and splash in a very short time, which will exert an extra force on the missile and therefore will affects the movement of the missile as well as the gesture when the missile comes out the water. Therefore, investigation into the water-exit process of the missile is of great significance to the launch of the underwater missiles. The traditional grid methods always fail to simulate the whole the water-exit process because of the large deformation of the mesh. The paper adopts a meshless method, called Moving Particle Semi-Implicit method (MPS), to study the water-exit process of the missile. Based on verifying it by the dam break simulation, MPS is applied to simulate the water mound during the water-exit process, which is aiming at providing some reference for the relevant theoretical research.
