Popis: Modeling and direct numerical simulation of particle-laden flows have a tremendous variety of applications in science and engineering across a vast spectrum of scales from pollution dispersion in the atmosphere, to fluidization in the combustion process, to aerosol deposition in spray medication, along with many others. Due to their strongly nonlinear and multiscale nature, the above complex phenomena still raise a very steep challenge to the most computational methods. In this review, we provide comprehensive coverage of multibody hydrodynamic (MBH) problems focusing on particulate suspensions in complex fluidic systems that have been simulated using hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian particulate flow models. Among these hybrid models, the Immersed Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann Method (IB-LBM) provides mathematically simple and computationally-efficient algorithms for solid-fluid hydrodynamic interactions in MBH simulations. This paper elaborates on the mathematical framework, applicability, and limitations of various 'simple to complex' representations of close-contact interparticle interactions and collision methods, including short-range inter-particle and particle-wall steric interactions, spring and lubrication forces, normal and oblique collisions, and mesoscale molecular models for deformable particle collisions based on hard-sphere and soft-sphere models in MBH models to simulate settling or flow of nonuniform particles of different geometric shapes and sizes in diverse fluidic systems.
