Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, kinetic theory - originally developed as a field of mathematical physics - has emerged as one of the most prominent fields of modern mathematics. In recent years, there has been an explosion of applications of kinetic theory to other areas of research, such as biology and social sciences. This book collects lecture notes and recent advances in the field of kinetic theory of lecturers and speakers of the School “Trails in Kinetic Theory: Foundational Aspects and Numerical Methods”, hosted at Hausdorff Institute for Mathematics (HIM) of Bonn, Germany, 2019, during the Junior Trimester Program “Kinetic Theory”. Focusing on fundamental questions in both theoretical and numerical aspects, it also presents a broad view of related problems in socioeconomic sciences, pedestrian dynamics and traffic flow management.

Book excerpt: The world is governed by motions. The term kinetics partially originated from the Greek word "kinisis," which means motion. How important is motion in our life is easily understood. But, how the kinetic theories have been developed during years? Which are the new kinetic theories and updates in recent years? This question and many others can be answered with this book. Some important areas discussed in this book are the kinetic theory of gases, kinetic theory of liquids and vapors, thermodynamic aspects, transportation phenomena, adsorption-kinetic theories, linear and nonlinear kinetic equations, quantum kinetic theory, kinetic theory of nucleation, plasma kinetic theory, and relativistic kinetic theory.

  • Author : S. G. Brush
  • Publisher : Elsevier
  • Release : 2016-07-04
  • ISBN : 1483138771
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book Kinetic Theory written by S. G. Brush and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-07-04 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kinetic Theory, Volume I: The Nature of Gases and of Heat deals with kinetic theory and the nature of gases and heat. A comprehensive account of the life, works, and historical environment of a number of scientists such as Robert Boyle and Hermann von Helmholtz is presented. This volume is comprised of 11 chapters and begins with an overview of the caloric theory, the principle of conservation of energy, the ""virial theorem,"" and atomic magnitudes. The discussion then turns to the qualitative atomic theory of the ""spring"" of the air, proposed by Robert Boyle; Isaac Newton's repulsion theory; Daniel Bernoulli's thery on the properties and motions of elastic fluids, especially air; and George Gregory's theory on the existence of fire. Subsequent chapters focus on Robert Mayer's theory on the forces of inorganic nature; James Joule's theory on matter, living force, and heat; Hermann von Helmholtz's theory on the conservation of force; and Rudolf Clausius's theory on the nature of heat. James Clerk Maxwell's dynamical theory of gases is also examined. This book is written primarily for students and research workers in physics, as well as for historians of science.

  • Author : Thierry Passot
  • Publisher : American Mathematical Soc.
  • Release : 2005
  • ISBN : 9780821837238
  • Pages : 328 pages

Download or read book Topics in Kinetic Theory written by Thierry Passot and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2005 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers a variety of topics related to kinetic theory in neutral gases and magnetized plasmas, with extensions to other systems such as quantum plasmas and granular flows. A comprehensive presentation is given for the Boltzmann equations and other kinetic equations for a neutral gas, together with the derivations of compressible and incompressible fluid dynamical systems, and their rigorous justification. Several contributions are devoted to collisionless magnetized plasmas. Rigorous results concerning the well-posedness of the Vlasov-Maxwell system are presented. Special interest is devoted to asymptotic regimes where the scales of variation of the electromagnetic field are clearly separated from those associated with the gyromotion of the particles. This volume collects lectures given at the Short Course and Workshop on Kinetic Theory organized at the Fields Institute of Mathematical Sciences in Toronto during the Spring of 2004.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book explores Man's relationship with the energy resources of our planet. It looks at how we evolved as a race, from ancient times to the present day, using the materials available to us, examining the relationship between Man's development and the energy resources we discovered. It also considers the future we face as we deplete the one resource that has allowed us to multiply rapidly - hydrocarbon energy."--Jacket.

Book excerpt: An advanced, inexpensive, transportable radar meteor trail set was developed and was recommended as an international standard by IUCSTP at the Moscow 1971 COSPAR meeting. The interferometer height-measuring technique, tested with the CRLH 001 Beacon in satellite OV1-17, was also recommended because of ground calibration capability and achieved accuracy. Computer programs for data reduction and advanced analysis were used to reduce and study wind and density data from AFCRL, Eglin AFB, Stanford University and the University of New Hampshire. Results were compared with other investigators' findings. (Author).
