Background & Mathematical Significance
This model visualizes the MRT (Multiple-Relaxation-Time) collision operator in the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM), one of the most powerful algorithms for simulating fluid dynamics.
Center Point: Represents the origin in moment space.
Radiating Lines (Wireframe Edition): Show the sparsity/connectivity structure of the transformation matrix, highlighting which velocity components interact.
Solid Edition: Embodies the same relationships but as a dense volumetric geometry, emphasizing overall stability and structure.
Coupling: Each ray illustrates how velocity distributions are transformed into moments (density, momentum, stress, etc.), relaxed via different rates, and then mapped back.
This starburst geometry makes visible the hidden algebraic structure that gives MRT its stability advantages over simpler operators.
Why Two Versions?
Wireframe Edition: Ideal for technical study — emphasizes sparsity, connectivity, and structure.
Solid Edition: Suited for visual presentation — highlights the form and density of MRT’s full coupling pattern.
Both editions reflect the same underlying mathematics, presented for different applications.
