  2. Lattice Boltzmann methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_Boltzmann_methods

    Schematic of D2Q9 lattice vectors for 2D Lattice Boltzmann. Unlike CFD methods that solve the conservation equations of macroscopic properties (i.e., mass, momentum, and energy) numerically, LBM models the fluid consisting of fictive particles, and such particles perform consecutive propagation and collision processes over a discrete lattice.

  3. Vortex lattice method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_lattice_method

    The Vortex lattice method, (VLM), is a numerical method used in computational fluid dynamics, mainly in the early stages of aircraft design and in aerodynamic education at university level. The VLM models the lifting surfaces, such as a wing , of an aircraft as an infinitely thin sheet of discrete vortices to compute lift and induced drag .

  4. Lattice model (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_model_(physics)

    In mathematical physics, a lattice model is a mathematical model of a physical system that is defined on a lattice, as opposed to a continuum, such as the continuum of space or spacetime. Lattice models originally occurred in the context of condensed matter physics, where the atoms of a crystal automatically form a lattice.

  5. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    The hpc lattice (left) and the ccf lattice (right) The principles involved can be understood by considering the most efficient way of packing together equal-sized spheres and stacking close-packed atomic planes in three dimensions. For example, if plane A lies beneath plane B, there are two possible ways of placing an additional atom on top of ...

  6. Lattice path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_Path

    Lattice path of length 5 in ℤ 2 with S = { (2,0), (1,1), (0,-1) }.. In combinatorics, a lattice path L in the d-dimensional integer lattice ⁠ ⁠ of length k with steps in the set S, is a sequence of vectors ⁠,, …, ⁠ such that each consecutive difference lies in S. [1]

  7. Particle in a one-dimensional lattice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_in_a_one...

    In quantum mechanics, the particle in a one-dimensional lattice is a problem that occurs in the model of a periodic crystal lattice. The potential is caused by ions in the periodic structure of the crystal creating an electromagnetic field so electrons are subject to a regular potential inside the lattice.

  8. Ising model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ising_model

    The Hamiltonian of the one-dimensional Ising model on a lattice of L sites with free boundary conditions is = =, …, +, where J and h can be any number, since in this simplified case J is a constant representing the interaction strength between the nearest neighbors and h is the constant external magnetic field applied to lattice sites.

  9. Self-avoiding walk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-avoiding_walk

    In mathematics, a self-avoiding walk (SAW) is a sequence of moves on a lattice (a lattice path) that does not visit the same point more than once. This is a special case of the graph theoretical notion of a path. A self-avoiding polygon (SAP) is a closed self-avoiding walk on a lattice. Very little is known rigorously about the self-avoiding ...
