Lattice Gas Hydrodynamics - Cambridge Nonlinear Science Series
Rivet, J.-P. (Observatoire de la Cote d'Azur)
This book carries two important messages. First, it shows how an automaton universe with simple microscopic dynamics can exhibit macroscopic behaviour in accordance with the phenomenological laws of classical physics. Second, it demonstrates that lattice gases have spontaneous microscopic fluctuations which capture the essentials of actual fluctuations in real fluids.
