The lattice Boltzmann method is an efficient and modern framework for the simulation of liquids and gases, for example being used in the automotive sector or in the aerospace industry.

In the article now published, findings on linear multi-step methods have been published for the first time in this context. These methods allow to obtain more precise simulation results with less computing time. For this reason, the article will probably find a broad readership in the community.

The article is a partial outcome of the NATriuM project), which was carried out by the PhD students Dr. Andreas Krämer, Knut Küllmer and Dominik Wilde. Since 2012, Prof. Dr. Dirk Reith's research group has successfully cooperated with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Holger Foysi's Chair of Fluid Mechanics at the University of Siegen. Following Dr. Andreas Krämer's successful doctorate, Knut Küllmer also submitted his dissertation at the end of 2018. Mario Bedrunka and Dominik Wilde now continue the successful work of the group.
