Lattice operators from discrete hydrodynamics

Computational Physics 2012-08-07 v1 Fluid Dynamics

Abstract

We present a general scheme to derive lattice differential operators from the discrete velocities and associated Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions used in lattice hydrodynamics. Such discretizations offer built-in isotropy and recursive techniques to increase the convergence order. This provides a simple and elegant procedure to derive isotropic and accurate discretizations of differential operators, which are expected to apply across a broad range of problems in computational physics.
