    Discrete-Velocity-Direction Models of BGK-Type with Minimum Entropy: II—Weighted Models

    In this series of works, we develop a discrete-velocity-direction model (DVDM) with collisions of BGK-type for simulating gas flows, where the molecular motion is confined to some prescribed directions but the...

    Discrete-Velocity-Direction Models of BGK-type with Minimum Entropy: I. Basic Idea

    In this series of works, we develop a discrete-velocity-direction model (DVDM) with collisions of BGK-type for simulating rarefied flows. Unlike the conventional kinetic models (both BGK and discrete-velocity ...

    Numerical Analysis of the Lattice Boltzmann Method for the Boussinesq Equations

    This paper is concerned with the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with BGK collision models for the two-dimensional Bousinessq equations on periodic domains. We show the numerical stability of the LBM linearized...

    Boundary Scheme for a Discrete Kinetic Approximation of the Navier–Stokes Equations

    This paper is concerned with boundary treatments of a discrete kinetic approximation proposed in Guo et al. (J Sci Comput 16(4):569–585, 2001) for the Navier–Stokes equations. For this approximation we find th...

    Existence of Traveling-Wave Solutions for Hyperbolic Systems of Balance Laws

    This paper is concerned with traveling-wave solutions for hyperbolic systems of balance laws satisfying a stability condition and a Kawashima-like condition. We are interested in the case where the traveling-w...

    Nonexistence of H Theorem for Some Lattice Boltzmann Models

    In this paper, we provide a set of sufficient conditions under which a lattice Boltzmann model does not admit an H theorem. By verifying the conditions, we prove that a number of existing lattice Boltzmann models...

    A numerical approach to degenerate parabolic equations

    In this work we propose a numerical approach to solve some kind of degenerate parabolic equations. The underlying idea is based on the maximum principle. More precisely, we locally perturb the (initial and bo...

    On stability and convergence of difference schemes for quasilinear hyperbolic initial-boundary-value problems

    In the seventies[2,3] we obtained some results on stability of difference schemes for initial-boundary-value problems of linear diagonalized hyperbolic systems in two independent variables. Later[4] these results...
