2. Towards the Bolzmann network method (LBM)

2.1 Introduction of the linearized collision term

The Boltzmann equation describes the temporal and spatial evolution of the f function, with a highly complex collision term. However, this distribution tends towards a known equilibrium. With this in mind, it's tempting to simplify the collision term. Indeed, for a distribution close to equilibrium, it is possible to linearize the collision, i.e. to consider that the function f evolves linearly towards equilibrium:
