Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is a new numerical method used to compute fluid motion, which is the development of Lattice Gas Automata (LGA) in the 1980s. The main idea of LBM is to bridge the gap between micro-scale and macro-scale by not considering each particle behavior alone but behavior of a...
