Computer Simulations of Active Matter (T)

Contents

In this topic the lattice-Boltzmann (LB) technique for simulating hydrodynamic momentum transfer through a fluid is discussed. To this an finite-volume diffusion-advection scheme for continuum solutes is added to allow for the description of the self-diffusiophoretic motion.
