Lattice Boltzmann Method-1

Kinetic Theory and micro-macro relations Pressure and Temperature are related to kinetic energy of particle as, Phase space and probability distribution function A coordinate system comprising position and velocity can be used to express the dynamics of a system. Such a system is called phase space. In general, the dynamics of a point in the …
