The'''Lattice Boltzmann methods for solids (LBMS)''' are specific methods based on the [[lattice Boltzmann methods]] (LBM). LBM are a group of numerical methods that are used to solve [[Partial differential equation|partial derivativesdifferential equations]] (PDE). These methods themselves relying on a discretization of the Boltzmann equation. When the PDE at stake are related to solid mechanics, the subset of LBM is called lattice Boltzmann methods for solids (LBMS).
These methods themselves relying on a discretization of the Boltzmann equation.
When the PDE at stake are related to solid mechanics, the subset of LBM is called lattice Boltzmann methods for solids (LBMS).
The main categories of LBMS are: vectorial distributions, wave solvers, force tuning, etc.
The LBMS subset remains highly challenging from a computational aspect as much as from a theoretical point of view.
