چکیده

We present an algorithm specifically tailored for solving kinetic equations onto GPUs. The efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated by solving the one-dimensional shock wave structure problem and a two-dimensional low Mach number driven cavity flow. Computational results show that it is possible to cut down the computing time of the sequential codes of two order of magnitudes. The algorithm can easily be extended to three-dimensional flows and more general collision models.

Numerical Methods for Solving Kinetic Equations of Neuronal Net- work Dynamics

Recently developed kinetic theory for neuronal network dynamics has been demonstrated to be a powerful theoretical framework for investigating coarse-grained dynamical properties of neuronal networks. The kinetic equations are a system of (1+1)dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) on a bounded domain with the following features: (i) the boundary conditions are nonlinear and...

Numerical methods for solving moment equations in kinetic theory of neuronal network dynamics

Recently developed kinetic theory and related closures for neuronal network dynamics have been demonstrated to be a powerful theoretical framework for investigating coarse-grained dynamical properties of neuronal networks. The moment equations arising from the kinetic theory are a system of (1 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) on a bounded domain with nonlinear bou...

Hydrodynamics beyond Navier-Stokes: exact solution to the lattice Boltzmann hierarchy.

The exact solution to the hierarchy of nonlinear lattice Boltzmann (LB) kinetic equations in the stationary planar Couette flow is found at nonvanishing Knudsen numbers. A new method of solving LB kinetic equations which combines the method of moments with boundary conditions for populations enables us to derive closed-form solutions for all higher-order moments. A convergence of results sugges...

تعیین معادله برتولت طول عمر پیشرانه‌های بر پایه نیتروسلولز با استفاده از روش پایداری در خلأ نیمه پیوسته

One of the most widely used propellants is nitrocellulose (NC) based on propellant, which is divided into three general groups including single base propellant (SBP), double base propellant (DBP), and triple base propellant (TBP). In this paper, the life time of three types of NC-based propellants has been examined by using the vacuum stability test (VST). In this method, kinetic equations have...

Numerical Simulation of Separation Bubble on Elliptic Cylinders Using Three-equation k-? Turbulence Model

Occurrence of laminar separation bubbles on solid walls of an elliptic cylinder has been simulated using a recently developed transitional model for boundary layer flows. Computational method is based on the solution of the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and the eddy-viscosity concept. Transitional model tries to simulate streamwise fluctuations, induced by freestream turbulen...
