Fokker-Planck Central Moment Lattice Boltzmann Method for Effective Simulations of Fluid Dynamics by William Schupbach, Kannan Premnath

“…This can be interpreted as a new path for the collision process in terms of the relaxation of the various central moments to “equilibria”, which we term as the Markovian central moment attractors that depend on the products of the adjacent lower order moments and a diffusion coefficient tensor, thereby involving of a chain of attractors; effectively, the latter are nonlinear functions of not only the hydrodynamic variables, but also the non-conserved moments; the relaxation rates are based on scaling the drift coefficient by the order of the moment involved. …”
