Density waves and $1/f$ density fluctuations in granular flow

We simulate the granular flow in a narrow pipe with a lattice-gas automaton model. We find that the density in the system is characterized by two features. One is that spontaneous density waves propagate through the system with well-defined shapes and velocities. The other is that density waves are so distributed to make the power spectra of density fluctuations as $1/f^α$ noise. Three important parameters make these features observable and they are energy dissipation, average density and the rougness of the pipe walls.

Theoretical approach to two-dimensional traffic flow models

In this paper we present a theoretical analysis of a recently proposed two-dimensional Cellular Automata model for traffic flow in cities with the novel ingredient of turning capability. Numerical simulations of this model show that there is a transition between a freely moving phase with high velocity to a jammed state with low velocity. We study the dynamics of such a model starting with the microscopic evolution equation, which will serve as a basis for further analysis. It is shown that a kinetic approach, based on the Boltzmann assumption, is able to provide a reasonably good description of the jamming transition. We further introduce a space-time continuous phenomenological model leading to a couple of partial differential equations whose preliminary results agree rather well with the numerical simulations.

Flow in the Driven Cavity Calculated by the Lattice Boltzmann Method

The lattice Boltzmann method with enhanced collisions and rest particles is used to calculate the flow in a two-dimensional lid-driven cavity. The abilitity of this method to compute the velocity and the pressure of an incompressible fluid in a geometry with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions is verified by calculating a test-problem where the analytical solution is known. Different parameter configurations have been tested for Reynolds numbers from $Re=10$ to $Re=2000$. The vortex structure for a more generalized lid-driven cavity problem with a non-uniform top speed has been studied for various acpect ratios.

Spatial Organization in the Reaction A + B --> inert for Particles with a Drift

We describe the spatial structure of particles in the (one dimensional) two-species annihilation reaction A + B --> 0, where both species have a uniform drift in the same direction and like species have a hard core exclusion. For the case of equal initial concentration, at long times, there are three relevant length scales: the typical distance between similar (neighboring) particles, the typical distance between dissimilar (neighboring) particles, and the typical size of a cluster of one type of particles. These length scales are found to be generically different than that found for particles without a drift.

A Selective Relaxation Method for Numerical Solution of Schrödinger Problems

We propose a numerical method for evaluating eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Schrödinger operators with general confining potentials. The method is selective in the sense that only the eigenvalue closest to a chosen input energy is found through an absolutely-stable relaxation algorithm which has rate of convergence infinite. In the case of bistable potentials the method allows one to evaluate the fundamental energy splitting for a wide range of tunneling rates.

Correlations and Renormalization in Lattice Gases

A complete formulation is given of an exact kinetic theory for lattice gases. This kinetic theory makes possible the calculation of corrections to the usual Boltzmann / Chapman-Enskog analysis of lattice gases due to the buildup of correlations. It is shown that renormalized transport coefficients can be calculated perturbatively by summing terms in an infinite series. A diagrammatic notation for the terms in this series is given, in analogy with the diagrammatic expansions of continuum kinetic theory and quantum field theory. A closed-form expression for the coefficients associated with the vertices of these diagrams is given. This method is applied to several standard lattice gases, and the results are shown to correctly predict experimentally observed deviations from the Boltzmann analysis.

Lyapunov spectral analysis of a nonequilibrium Ising-like transition

By simulating a nonequilibrium coupled map lattice that undergoes an Ising-like phase transition, we show that the Lyapunov spectrum and related dynamical quantities such as the dimension correlation length~$ξ_δ$ are insensitive to the onset of long-range ferromagnetic order. As a function of lattice coupling constant~$g$ and for certain lattice maps, the Lyapunov dimension density and other dynamical order parameters go through a minimum. The occurrence of this minimum as a function of~$g$ depends on the number of nearest neighbors of a lattice point but not on the lattice symmetry, on the lattice dimensionality or on the position of the Ising-like transition. In one-space dimension, the spatial correlation length associated with magnitude fluctuations and the length~$ξ_δ$ are approximately equal, with both varying linearly with the radius of the lattice coupling.

Long-range correlations in non-equilibrium systems: Lattice gas automaton approach

In systems removed from equilibrium, intrinsic microscopic fluctuations become correlated over distances comparable to the characteristic macroscopic length over which the external constraint is exerted. In order to investigate this phenomenon, we construct a microscopic model with simple stochastic dynamics using lattice gas automaton rules that satisfy local detailed balance. Because of the simplicity of the automaton dynamics, analytical theory can be developed to describe the space and time evolution of the density fluctuations. The exact equations for the pair correlations are solved explicitly in the hydrodynamic limit. In this limit, we rigorously derive the results obtained phenomenologically by fluctuating hydrodynamics. In particular, the spatial algebraic decay of the equal-time fluctuation correlations predicted by this theory is found to be in excellent agreement with the results of our lattice gas automaton simulations for two different types of boundary conditions. Long-range correlations of the type described here appear generically in dynamical systems that exhibit large scale anisotropy and lack detailed balance.

Mean Field Behavior of Cluster Dynamics

The dynamic behavior of cluster algorithms is analyzed in the classical mean field limit. Rigorous analytical results below $T_c$ establish that the dynamic exponent has the value $z_{sw}=1$ for the Swendsen-Wang algorithm and $z_{uw}=0$ for the Wolff algorithm. An efficient Monte Carlo implementation is introduced, adapted for using these algorithms for fully connected graphs. Extensive simulations both above and below $T_c$ demonstrate scaling and evaluate the finite-size scaling function by means of a rather impressive collapse of the data.

Diffusion in a multi-component Lattice Boltzmann Equation model

Diffusion phenomena in a multiple component lattice Boltzmann Equation (LBE) model are discussed in detail. The mass fluxes associated with different mechanical driving forces are obtained using a Chapman-Enskog analysis. This model is found to have correct diffusion behavior and the multiple diffusion coefficients are obtained analytically. The analytical results are further confirmed by numerical simulations in a few solvable limiting cases. The LBE model is established as a useful computational tool for the simulation of mass transfer in fluid systems with external forces.

A Simple Model for Deep Bed Filtration

We present a simple model for deep bed filtration, where particles suspended in a fluid are trapped while passing through a porous filter. A steady state of the model is reached when filter can not trap additional particles. We find the model has two qualitatively different steady states depending on the fraction of traps, and the steady states can be described by directed percolation. We study in detail the evolution of the distribution of trapped particles, as the number of trapped particles increases. To understand the evolution, we formulate a mean field equation for the model, whose numerical solution is consistent with the behavior of the model. We find the trapped particle distribution is insensitive to details of the formulation of the model.

Computer simulations of domain growth and phase separation in two-dimensional binary immiscible fluids using dissipative particle dynamics

We investigate the dynamical behavior of binary fluid systems in two dimensions using dissipative particle dynamics. We find that following a symmetric quench the domain size R(t) grows with time t according to two distinct algebraic laws R(t) = t^n: at early times n = 1/2, while for later times n = 2/3. Following an asymmetric quench we observe only n = 1/2, and if momentum conservation is violated we see n = 1/3 at early times. Bubble simulations confirm the existence of a finite surface tension and the validity of Laplace's law. Our results are compared with similar simulations which have been performed previously using molecular dynamics, lattice-gas and lattice-Boltzmann automata, and Langevin dynamics. We conclude that dissipative particle dynamics is a promising method for simulating fluid properties in such systems.

Simulation of Rayleigh-Bénard convection using lattice Boltzmann method

Rayleigh-Bénard convection is numerically simulated in two- and three-dimensions using a recently developed two-component lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method. The density field of the second component, which evolves according to the advection-diffusion equation of a passive-scalar, is used to simulate the temperature field. A body force proportional to the temperature is applied, and the system satisfies the Boussinesq equation except for a slight compressibility. A no-slip, isothermal boundary condition is imposed in the vertical direction, and periodic boundary conditions are used in horizontal directions. The critical Rayleigh number for the onset of the Rayleigh-Bénard convection agrees with the theoretical prediction. As the Rayleigh number is increased higher, the steady two-dimensional convection rolls become unstable. The wavy instability and aperiodic motion observed, as well as the Nusselt number as a function of the Rayleigh number, are in good agreement with experimental observations and theoretical predictions. The LBE model is found to be efficient, accurate, and numerically stable for the simulation of fluid flows with heat and mass transfer.

Integer Lattice Gases

We generalize the hydrodynamic lattice gas model to include arbitrary numbers of particles moving in each lattice direction. For this generalization we derive the equilibrium distribution function and the hydrodynamic equations, including the equation of state and the prefactor of the inertial term that arises from the breaking of galilean invariance in these models. We show that this prefactor can be set to unity in the generalized model, therby effectively restoring galilean invariance. Moreover, we derive an expression for the kinematic viscosity, and show that it tends to decrease with the maximum number of particles allowed in each direction, so that higher Reynolds numbers may be achieved. Finally, we derive expressions for the statistical noise and the Boltzmann entropy of these models.

Quantum mechanics of lattice gas automata. I. One particle plane waves and potentials

Classical lattice gas automata effectively simulate physical processes such as diffusion and fluid flow (in certain parameter regimes) despite their simplicity at the microscale. Motivated by current interest in quantum computation we recently defined quantum lattice gas automata; in this paper we initiate a project to analyze which physical processes these models can effectively simulate. Studying the single particle sector of a one dimensional quantum lattice gas we find discrete analogues of plane waves and wave packets, and then investigate their behaviour in the presence of inhomogeneous potentials.

Parallel Algorithm and Dynamic Exponent for Diffusion-limited Aggregation

A parallel algorithm for ``diffusion-limited aggregation'' (DLA) is described and analyzed from the perspective of computational complexity. The dynamic exponent z of the algorithm is defined with respect to the probabilistic parallel random-access machine (PRAM) model of parallel computation according to $T \sim L^{z}$, where L is the cluster size, T is the running time, and the algorithm uses a number of processors polynomial in L\@. It is argued that z=D-D_2/2, where D is the fractal dimension and D_2 is the second generalized dimension. Simulations of DLA are carried out to measure D_2 and to test scaling assumptions employed in the complexity analysis of the parallel algorithm. It is plausible that the parallel algorithm attains the minimum possible value of the dynamic exponent in which case z characterizes the intrinsic history dependence of DLA.

Lattice-gas simulations of Domain Growth, Saturation and Self-Assembly in Immiscible Fluids and Microemulsions

We investigate the dynamical behavior of both binary fluid and ternary microemulsion systems in two dimensions using a recently introduced hydrodynamic lattice-gas model of microemulsions. We find that the presence of amphiphile in our simulations reduces the usual oil-water interfacial tension in accord with experiment and consequently affects the non-equilibrium growth of oil and water domains. As the density of surfactant is increased we observe a crossover from the usual two-dimensional binary fluid scaling laws to a growth that is {\it slow}, and we find that this slow growth can be characterized by a logarithmic time scale. With sufficient surfactant in the system we observe that the domains cease to grow beyond a certain point and we find that this final characteristic domain size is inversely proportional to the interfacial surfactant concentration in the system.

Solution of the Density Classification Problem with Two Cellular Automata Rules

Recently, Land and Belew [Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 5148 (1995)] have shown that no one-dimensional two-state cellular automaton which classifies binary strings according to their densities of 1's and 0's can be constructed. We show that a pair of elementary rules, namely the ``traffic rule'' 184 and the ``majority rule'' 232, performs the task perfectly. This solution employs the second order phase transition between the freely moving phase and the jammed phase occurring in rule 184. We present exact calculations of the order parameter in this transition using the method of preimage counting.
