Two-dimensional Gauss--Jacobi Quadrature for Multiscale Boltzmann Solvers

The discretization of velocity space plays a crucial role in the accuracy and efficiency of multiscale Boltzmann solvers. Conventional velocity space discretization methods suffer from uneven node distribution and mismatch issues, limiting the performance of numerical simulations. To address this, a Gaussian quadrature scheme with a parameterized weight function is proposed, combined with a polar coordinate transformation for flexible discretization of velocity space. This method effectively mitigates node mismatch problems encountered in traditional approaches. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly improves accuracy while reducing computational cost. Under highly rarefied conditions, the proposed method achieves a speed-up of up to 50 times compared to the conventional Newton-Cotes quadrature, offering an efficient tool with broad applicability for numerical simulations of rarefied and multiscale gas flows.

Generalized Gauss-Jacobi rules for discrete velocity method in Multiscale Flow Simulations

The discrete velocity method (DVM) is a powerful framework for simulating gas flows across continuum to rarefied regimes, yet its efficiency remains limited by existing quadrature rules. Conventional infinite-domain quadratures, such as Gauss-Hermite, distribute velocity nodes globally and perform well near equilibrium but fail under strong nonequilibrium conditions. In contrast, finite-interval quadratures, such as Newton-Cotes, enable local refinement but lose efficiency near equilibrium. To overcome these limitations, we propose a generalized Gauss-Jacobi quadrature (GGJQ) for DVM, built upon a new class of adjustable weight functions. This framework systematically constructs one- to three-dimensional quadratures and maps the velocity space into polar or spherical coordinates, enabling flexible and adaptive discretization. The GGJQ accurately captures both near-equilibrium and highly rarefied regimes, as well as low- and high-Mach flows, achieving superior computational efficiency without compromising accuracy. Numerical experiments over a broad range of Knudsen numbers confirm that GGJQ consistently outperforms traditional Newton-Cotes and Gauss-Hermite schemes, offering a robust and efficient quadrature strategy for multiscale kinetic simulations.

Geometrical and electrical modulation on the transport property of silicene constrictions

We study the electrical modulation of the transport properties of silicene constrictions with different geometrical structures by adopting the tight-binding model and non-equilibrium Green's function method. The band structure and transmission properties are discussed under the influence of the external electric field and potential energy. Especially, we investigate the effects of the position and width of the central scattering region on the conductance with increasing of Fermi energy. We find that the conductance significantly depends on the position and the width. Interestingly, the symmetrical structure of the central region can induce a resonance effect and significantly enlarge the system's conductance. Obviously, we obtain an effective method to adjust the transport property of the silicene heterojunctions. Correspondingly, we propose a novel two-channel structure with an excellent performance on the conductance compared to the one-channel structure with the same total width.
