Comparison of Lattice Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes for Zonal Turbulence Simulation of Urban Wind Flows (2022)
Journal Article
Camps Santasmasas, M., Zhang, X., Parslew, B., Lane-Serff, G. F., Millar, J., & Revell, A. (2022). Comparison of Lattice Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes for Zonal Turbulence Simulation of Urban Wind Flows. Fluids, 7(6), 181. https://doi.org/10.3390/fluids7060181

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
Fan, S., Santasmasas, M. C., Guo, X., Yang, C., & Revell, A. (2021). Source Term-Based Turbulent Flow Simulation on GPU with Link-Wise Artificial Compressibility Method. International Journal of Computational Fluid Dynamics, 35(7), 549-561. https://doi.org/10.1080/10618562.2021.1980212

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...
