A coupled finite volume-lattice Boltzmann method for incompressible internal flows (2025)
Journal Article

We present, test and validate a two-way framework that couples macroscopic and mesoscopic methods to simulate incompressible internal flows spanning a range of spatial and temporal scales. Specifically, the unstructured finite volume method (FVM) is... Read More about A coupled finite volume-lattice Boltzmann method for incompressible internal flows.

In modelling turbulent flow around buildings, the computational domain needs to be much larger than the immediate neighbourhood of the building, resulting in computational costs that are excessive for many engineering applications. Two nested models... Read More about Comparison of Lattice Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes for Zonal Turbulence Simulation of Urban Wind Flows.

Source Term-Based Turbulent Flow Simulation on GPU with Link-Wise Artificial Compressibility Method (2021)
Journal Article

We present a GPU-based turbulent flow simulation by link-wise artificial compressibility method (LW-ACM). The standard implementations of the lattice Boltzmann method are limited by memory requirements due to the nature of the distribution functions...
