Full Description
The nine review articles contained here introduce the
techniques required touse lattice gas methods for numerical
simulations of complex flows. Furthermore, lattice Boltzmann
models are studied together with classical numerical
techniques. The editors have written an extensive
introductionto this exciting new approach to solving
practical problems in modelling andsimulating flows.
The book addresses numerical analysts and engineers in fluid
mechanics, but also graduate students.
