\noindent
I would like to thank everyone who supported me in any of my activities during my Ph.D. studies.
\todo{explicitly mention Tissa and Andrew (CESEP and ERDC)}
\todo{Matej Špeťko (IT4I, VSB) -- great discussion and support when I optimized the LBM code for the Karolina supercomputer}
It is my pleasure to thank all giants on whose shoulders this thesis stands and everyone who supported me during my Ph.D. studies.
First of all, I thank my supervisors, Tomáš Oberhuber and Radek Fučík, for their expert guidance that helped to shape my research work.
I also thank Tissa Illangasekare and Andrew Trautz for their invaluable advices, ideas and repeated opportunities to visit their institutions.
Finally, I thank all members of the Mathematical Modeling Group formed around Michal Beneš for providing me with a comfortable working environment with a friendly atmosphere.
