商品描述

Lattice Boltzmann Method introduces the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for solving transport phenomena - flow, heat and mass transfer - in a systematic way. Providing explanatory computer codes throughout the book, the author guides readers through many practical examples, such as:

  • flow in isothermal and non-isothermal lid driven cavities;
  • flow over obstacles;
  • forced flow through a heated channel;
  • conjugate forced convection; and
  • natural convection.

Diffusion and advection-diffusion equations are discussed with applications and examples, and complete computer codes accompany the coverage of single and multi-relaxation-time methods. Although the codes are written in FORTRAN, they can be easily translated to other languages, such as C++. The codes can also be extended with little effort to multi-phase and multi-physics, if the reader knows the physics of the problem.

Readers with some experience of advanced mathematics and physics will find Lattice Boltzmann Method a useful and easy-to-follow text. It has been written for those who are interested in learning and applying the LBM to engineering and industrial problems and it can also serve as a textbook for advanced undergraduate or graduate students who are studying computational transport phenomena.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《格子玻爾茲曼方法》介紹了格子玻爾茲曼方法 (Lattice Boltzmann Method, LBM) 用於系統性地解決傳輸現象——流動、熱量和質量傳遞。作者在全書中提供了解釋性的電腦程式碼,並引導讀者通過許多實際範例,例如:
- 等溫和非等溫的蓋驅動腔體中的流動;
- 障礙物上的流動;
- 通過加熱通道的強迫流動;
- 共軛強迫對流;以及
- 自然對流。

書中討論了擴散和對流-擴散方程,並提供了應用和範例,完整的電腦程式碼伴隨著單一和多放鬆時間方法的內容。雖然這些程式碼是用 FORTRAN 編寫的,但可以輕鬆轉換為其他語言,例如 C++。如果讀者了解問題的物理學,這些程式碼也可以輕鬆擴展到多相和多物理問題。

具有一定高等數學和物理學經驗的讀者會發現《格子玻爾茲曼方法》是一本有用且易於理解的文本。這本書是為那些有興趣學習和應用 LBM 於工程和工業問題的人所寫,也可以作為高級本科生或研究生學習計算傳輸現象的教科書。

作者簡介

Professor Abdulmajeed Mohamad is a faculty member at the Schulich School of Engineering, University of Calgary, Canada. He graduated from Baghdad University with a B.Sc. (Hons) and M.Sc. in 1976 and 1978, respectively and subsequently worked as a lecturer at Mosul University until 1985. In 1992, he received his Ph.D. degree from Purdue University, where he was mentored by Professor Raymond Viskanta. Here, he learned the importance of freedom as a fundamental concept of curiosity, which eventually blossoms into new ideas. This lesson was, and still is, evident in his professional work.

In 1993, he became an Assistant Professor at Eastern Mediterranean University, North Cyprus. In September 1999 Professor Mohamad and his family immigrated to Canada, and in 2000 he joined the faculty of the University of Calgary and eventually became a tenured faculty member.

Throughout his career, Professor Mohamad has also participated extensively in professional activities, such as organizing national and international conferences. He is the founder of the International Conference on Computational Heat, Mass and Momentum Transfer, and of the International Conference on Applications of Porous Media.

While on leave from the University of Calgary during the period 2010-2012, he served as the acting Dean of Engineering at Alfaisal University (AU), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and was instrumental in establishing the university's Engineering School.

Professor Mohamad is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and an Executive Member of the Scientific Council for the International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer (ICHMT).

His contributions on the fundamentals of heat transfer, computational methods of incompressible flow, transport and combustion in porous media are well recognized by his peers. Professor Mohamad has authored over 250 papers, mainly in peer-reviewed journals, as well as a popular textbook on the Lattice Boltzmann Method - Fundamentals and Engineering Applications with Computer Codes, which was published by Springer in 2011. He was honored with the Averroes Award (ICOME17 meeting, July 2017) for his contributions to the education of many students around the world.

阿卜杜勒馬吉德·穆罕默德教授是加拿大卡爾加里大學舒立赫工程學院的教職員。他於1976年和1978年分別從巴格達大學獲得榮譽理學士學位和碩士學位,隨後在摩蘇爾大學擔任講師,直到1985年。1992年,他在普渡大學獲得博士學位,並受到雷蒙德·維斯坎塔教授的指導。在那裡,他學到了自由作為好奇心的基本概念的重要性,這最終會孕育出新的想法。這一課程在他的專業工作中是顯而易見的,並且至今仍然如此。

1993年,他成為北賽普勒斯東地中海大學的助理教授。1999年9月,穆罕默德教授和他的家人移民到加拿大,並於2000年加入卡爾加里大學的教職,最終成為終身教職成員。

在他的職業生涯中,穆罕默德教授還廣泛參與專業活動,例如組織國內和國際會議。他是計算熱、質量和動量傳遞國際會議以及多孔介質應用國際會議的創始人。

在2010年至2012年期間,他從卡爾加里大學請假,擔任沙烏地阿拉伯阿爾法伊薩大學(AU)工程學院的代理院長,並在建立該大學的工程學院方面發揮了重要作用。

穆罕默德教授是美國機械工程師學會(ASME)的會士,也是國際熱質傳遞中心(ICHMT)科學委員會的執行成員。他在熱傳遞基礎、不可壓縮流的計算方法、在多孔介質中的傳輸和燃燒等方面的貢獻得到了同行的廣泛認可。穆罕默德教授已發表超過250篇論文,主要發表在同行評審的期刊上,以及一本受歡迎的教科書《格子玻爾茲曼方法:基礎與工程應用及計算機代碼》,該書於2011年由施普林格出版。他因對全球許多學生教育的貢獻而獲得了阿維羅伊斯獎(ICOME17會議,2017年7月)。
