The study of transport phenomena in disordered media is a subject of wide interdisciplinary concern, with many applications in fluid mechanics, condensed matter, life and environmental sciences as well. Flows through grossly irregular (porous) media is a specific fluid mechanical application of great practical value in applied science and engineering. It is arguably also one of the applications of choice of the LBE methods. The dual field–particle character of LBE shines brightly here: the particle-like nature of LBE (populations move along straight particle trajectories) permits a transparent treatment of grossly irregular geometries in terms of elementary mechanical events, such as mirror and bounce-back reflections. These assets were quickly recognized by researchers in the field, and still make of LBE (and eventually LGCA) an excellent numerical tool for flows in porous media, as it shall be discussed in this Chapter.

AbstractIt has been shown recently that the backscattering of wave propagation in one-dimensional disordered media can be entirely suppressed for normal incidence by adding sample-specific gain and loss components to the medium. Here, we study the Anderson localization behaviors of electromagnetic waves in such gain-loss balanced random non-Hermitian systems when the waves are obliquely incident on the random media. We also study the case of normal incidence when the sample-specific gain-loss profile is slightly altered so that the Anderson localization occurs. Our results show that the Anderson localization in the non-Hermitian system behaves differently from random Hermitian systems in which the backscattering is suppressed.

ABSTRACTThe symmetry conditions which rule the matching of a fulleren molecule's main axis in a translational lattice are considered. The full set of orientational states for the structure of fullerene are obtained. The different levels of correlations between symmetry axes of icosahedral molecule and cubic lattice are considered. This result used for analysis of orientational ordering models, including modulation structure and discrete orientational glass.
