About the Cover
Fluid flow through a deterministic Menger Sponge prefractal porous medium model simulated using the Lattice Boltzmann method as described in “Analytical Predictions and Lattice Boltzmann Simulations of Intrinsic Permeability for Mass Fractal Porous Media” by Cihan et al. (p. 187–196). Flow is driven by a pressure gradient. Velocity vectors are shown on cross-sectional planes cut perpendicular to the bulk flow direction. Mass flux is constant, but outflow velocities are higher than inflow due to compressibility of Lattice Boltzmann fluid.
