Immersed Boundary Methods in the Lattice Boltzmann Equation for Flow Simulation

In this dissertation, we explore direct-forcing immersed boundary methods (IBM) under the framework of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), which is called the direct-forcing immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method (IB-LBM). First, we derive the direct-forcing formula based on the split-forcing la...
