Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is developed for solution of one-dimensional population balance equations (PBEs) with simultaneous growth, nucleation, aggregation and breakage …

In this paper, the fluid dynamics induced by a rigid lamina undergoing harmonic oscillations in a non-Newtonian calm fluid is investigated. The fluid is modelled through the lattice …
We show that the actual diffusive dynamics, governing the momentum relaxation of a polymer molecule, and described by a Fokker-Planck equation, may be replaced by a BGK …
We revisit force evaluation methodologies on rigid solid particles suspended in a viscous fluid that is simulated via the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). We point out the …

We assess the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method versus centered finite-difference schemes for the solution of the advection–diffusion–reaction (ADR) Fisher's equation. It is found that the …

Micro–macro simulations of polymeric solutions rely on the coupling between macroscopic conservation equations for the fluid flow and stochastic differential equations for kinetic …
We provide a Boltzmann-type kinetic description for dilute polymer solutions based on two- fluid theory. This Boltzmann-type description uses a quasiequilibrium based relaxation …

In this paper, a rigid thickless lamina is immersed in a quiescent viscous fluid and it undergoes transverse finite amplitude harmonic oscillations near a solid surface. The …
This thesis is concerned with the theoretical study of the dynamics of two classes of complex fluids-dilute polymer solutions (chapter 1) and active suspensions (chapter 2 and 3). In …
