Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past two decades, the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) has advanced rapidly and has been applied across a wide range of scientific and engineering domains. Owing to its kinetic foundation and algorithmic simplicity, LBM offers notable advantages, including excellent scalability on massively parallel architectures, robust handling of complex geometries, and effective modeling of multiphase flows. This Special Issue of Fluids is devoted to recent progress in LBM methodologies and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, parallel algorithms and high-performance implementations, graphics processing unit (GPU) acceleration, novel boundary-condition formulations, unstructured-mesh schemes, simulations of flows in complex geometries, and multiphase, multiphysics, and multiscale modeling.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fluids is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
