abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Cartesian grid method and local grid refinement for discrete velocity
method (DVM) are developed in this work, with the numerical flux of DVM constructed by semi-Implicit Richtmyer method. To implement the boundary condition,
the interpolation approach is applied, where the distribution function at the fluid side
of the boundary point is first approximated by interpolation method given the knowledge of the boundary point. Once the distribution function is interpolated, the reflected Maxwellian distribution and numerical flux at boundary point can be evaluated. Then the distribution function at the fluid point close to the boundary can be
updated by finite difference formulation. However, the interpolation of the distribution function at the boundary point is a significant challenge as the breakdown of the
upwind stencil will cause instability. To preserve the upwind stencil, the most effective
approach is to perform interpolation along the characteristic lines. Moreover, the local
grid refinement is introduced to reduce the computational cost for industrial application. To validate the proposed Cartesian grid method, some numerical examples are
simulated. The results demonstrate the accuracy and stability of the present method
for straight boundary with oblique and curved boundary, subsonic and supersonic
flows.</p>},
