Book Lattice Boltzmann Methods for Shallow Water Flows

Download or read book Lattice Boltzmann Methods for Shallow Water Flows written by Jian Guo Zhou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is a modern numerical technique, very efficient, flexible to simulate different flows within complex/varying geome tries. It is evolved from the lattice gas automata (LGA) in order to overcome the difficulties with the LGA. The core equation in the LBM turns out to be a special discrete form of the continuum Boltzmann equation, leading it to be self-explanatory in statistical physics. The method describes the micro scopic picture of particles movement in an extremely simplified way, and on the macroscopic level it gives a correct average description of a fluid. The av eraged particle velocities behave in time and space just as the flow velocities in a physical fluid, showing a direct link between discrete microscopic and continuum macroscopic phenomena. In contrast to the traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based on a direct solution of flow equations, the lattice Boltzmann method provides an indirect way for solution of the flow equations. The method is characterized by simple calculation, parallel process and easy implementation of boundary conditions. It is these features that make the lattice Boltzmann method a very promising computational method in different areas. In recent years, it receives extensive attentions and becomes a very potential research area in computational fluid dynamics. However, most published books are limited to the lattice Boltzmann methods for the Navier-Stokes equations. On the other hand, shallow water flows exist in many practical situations such as tidal flows, waves, open channel flows and dam-break flows.

Book Lattice Boltzmann Methods for Shallow Water Flows

Download or read book Lattice Boltzmann Methods for Shallow Water Flows written by Jian Guo Zhou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-01-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a modern numerical technique, a lattice Boltzmann method, for shallow water flows with or without flow turbulence. This method requires only a simple microscopic equation to determine the depth and velocity based on its recovered macroscopic properties. The method is accurate and efficient for simulating complicated flows and flows within complex geometries, so it is becoming a powerful design tool in fluids engineering. The book may be used as a reference for scientists and engineers, a practical guide to the method for consultant organisations, and a textbook for graduates in engineering sciences such as coastal, civil and environmental engineering.

Book The Lattice Boltzmann Method

Download or read book The Lattice Boltzmann Method written by Timm Krüger and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to the theory, practice, and implementation of the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method, a powerful computational fluid dynamics method that is steadily gaining attention due to its simplicity, scalability, extensibility, and simple handling of complex geometries. The book contains chapters on the method's background, fundamental theory, advanced extensions, and implementation. To aid beginners, the most essential paragraphs in each chapter are highlighted, and the introductory chapters on various LB topics are front-loaded with special "in a nutshell" sections that condense the chapter's most important practical results. Together, these sections can be used to quickly get up and running with the method. Exercises are integrated throughout the text, and frequently asked questions about the method are dealt with in a special section at the beginning. In the book itself and through its web page, readers can find example codes showing how the LB method can be implemented efficiently on a variety of hardware platforms, including multi-core processors, clusters, and graphics processing units. Students and scientists learning and using the LB method will appreciate the wealth of clearly presented and structured information in this volume.

Sadly, there were important absentees, who due to personal circumstance could not at tend this very exciting gathering. The central theme o{ the meeting, and of this book, was numerical methods for hyperbolic conservation laws fol lowing Godunov's key ideas contained in his celebrated paper of 1959. But Godunov's contributions to science are not restricted to Godunov's method.
