Description

Modeling and Computational Methods for Kinetic Equations, Hardcover by Degond.... Modeling and Computational Methods for Kinetic Equations, Hardcover by Degond, Pierre (EDT); Pareschi, Lorenzo (EDT); Russo, Giovanni (EDT), ISBN 0817632549, ISBN-13 9780817632540, Brand New, Free shipping in the US In recent years kinetic theory has developed in many areas of the physical sciences and engineering, and has extended the borders of its traditional fields of application. This monograph is a self-contained presentation of such recently developed aspects of kinetic theory, as well as a comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory. Emphasizing modeling techniques and numerical methods, th provides a unified treatment of kinetic equations not found in more focused works. Specific applications presented include plasma kinetic models, traffic flow models, granular media models, and coagulation-fragmentation problems. The work may be used for self-study, as a reference text, or in graduate-level courses in kinetic theory and its applications.
