Summary
The Lattice Boltzmann Equation: A Comprehensive Guide
In recent years, stylized forms of the Boltzmann equation, known as the “Lattice Boltzmann Equation” (LBE), have emerged. These forms relinquish most mathematical complexities of the true Boltzmann equation without sacrificing physical fidelity in describing many situations involving complex fluid motion.
This book provides the first detailed survey of LBE theory and its major applications to date. It is accessible to a b…
