description Due to the entrapment of compressible air, the process of a flat plate impact on water is complicated, which cannot be reproduced using incompressible simulations. To investigate such a slamming process, an accuracy compressible fluid–structure interaction numerical model has been proposed. The solution of this model is based on the constrained interpolation profile (CIP) method to solve the Navier–Stokes equations for the computation of fluid, and an implicit immersed boundary method (IBM) is used to calculate the fluid–structure interaction. Firstly, the present (CIP–IBM–based) model is validated against the problem of the flow past a stationary cylinder. Then it is implemented to simulate the problem of a rigid flat plate impact on water. The predicated impact pressure is compared with reference experiments and other simulations. The CIP–IBM–based model shows a better performance in dealing with sub-atmospheric pressure and reloading. From the numerical view, it is shown that the oscillation of the slamming pressure is significantly affected by the compression and expansion of the entrapped air cushion, and under the influence of the air cushion, the slamming pressure distribution along the bottom is not constant, which also varies greatly with time.
