Lattice Boltzmann Simulation Studies
Lattice Boltzmann Simulation Studies is a research topic within Computational Mechanics. Science Explorer counts 28k research works in it since 1950. 20.7% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on the application and development of the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) for simulating complex flows, including multiphase flow, fluid-structure interaction, and heat transfer in porous media. It also explores the integration of LBM with immersed boundary methods and its use in modeling binary fluid systems and kinetic theory representation of hydrodynamics.
