Abstract: The structure and transport of neutral and charged fluids under nanoscopic confinement are derived from the kinetic and microscopic perspective. As compared to lumped parameter approaches, the strategy is to resolve the collision between particles for hard-core forces and to use a mean field treatment for soft- and long-ranged forces. The numerical strategy adapts the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) scheme to handle interatomic and electrostatic interactions.
