Frisch, Hasslacher, and Pomeau devise a method of simulating the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe the behavior of fluids and are used in many areas of science and technology. Their approach consists of a virtual particle known as a “cellular automaton” whose movements on a hexagonal grid are related to the motions of fluid particles.
