The Lattice Boltzmann Equation: For Complex States of Flowing Matter

Sauro Succi (Director of Research, Director of Research, Istituto Applicazioni del Calcolo Mauro Picone , Rome, National Research Council of Italy)

Flowing matter is all around us, from daily-life vital processes (breathing, blood circulation) to industrial, environmental, biological, and medical sciences. Complex states of flowing matter are equally present in fundamental physical processes, far remote from our direct senses, such as quantum-relativistic matter under ultra-high temperature conditions (quark-gluon plasmas).Capturing the complexities of such states of matter stands as one of the most prominent challenges of modern science, with multiple ramifications to physics, biology, mathematics, and computer science. As a result, mathematical and computational techniques capable of providing a quantitative account of the way that such complex states of flowing matter behave in space and time are becoming increasingly important. This book provides a unique description of a major technique, the Lattice Boltzmann method.
