Cellular Automata and Parallel Processing for Practical Fluid-Dynamics Problems

摘要

The study undertook to examine the utility of cellular automata in physicalscience calculations, especially in fluid dynamics. The scope of the study was expanded to include several related topics which would be of some interest to our sponsors. These include: (1) a comparison of cellular automata (CA) techniques to conventional methods of solving the partial differential equations of fluid dynamics or other physical situations; and (2) the utility and status of using parallel or concurrent processing machines for doing either CA or conventional fluids calculations.
