Among other applications, the study of thermal properties of large networks of carbon nanoparticles may have a critical impact in loss-free, more compact and efficient thermal storage systems, as well as thermally conducting polymeric materials for innovative low-cost heat exchangers. In this...

In the present paper, we review the consistent definition of macroscopic total energy in classical fluid mechanics, as a function of the microscopic canonical Hamiltonian field, based on a Lennard-Jones model with some spatially varying external field. The macroscopic total energy (sum of...

A non-perturbative algebraic theory of the lattice Boltzmann method is developed based on the symmetry of a product. It involves three steps: (i) Derivation of admissible lattices in one spatial dimension through a matching condition which imposes restricted extension of higher-order Gaussian...
