In this paper, a detailed analysis of the lattice Boltzmann method is presented to simulate an incompressible fluid flow problem. Thorough derivation of macroscopic hydrodynamics equations from the continuous Boltzmann equation is performed. After showing how the formulation of the mesocale particle...
