Lattice Gas Dynamics by Jeffrey Yepez Pdf
The theory and computation of lattice gas dynamics for viscous fluid hydrodynamics is presented. Theoretical analysis of these exactly conserved, discrete models is done using the Boltzmann approximation, a mean-field theoretical treatment. Theoretical results are then compared to numerical data arrived by exactly computed simulations of simple lattice-gas systems. The numerical simulations presented were carried out on a prototype lattice-gas machine, the CAM-8, which is a virtual finegrained paralled mesh architecture suitable for discrete modeling in arbitrary dimensions. Single speed and multi-speed lattice gases are treated. The new contribution is an integer lattice gas with many particles per momentum state. Comparisons are made between the mean-field theory and numerical experiments for shear viscosity transport coefficient.
