Note on a Micropolar Gas-Kinetic Theory
The micropolar fluid mechanics and its transport coefficients are derived from the linearized Boltzmann equation of rotating particles. In the dilute limit, as expected, transport coefficients relating to microrotation are not important, but the results are useful for the description of collisional granular flow on an inclined slope. (This paper will be published in Traffic and Granular Flows 2...
متن کاملNumerical methods for solving moment equations in kinetic theory of neuronal network dynamics
Recently developed kinetic theory and related closures for neuronal network dynamics have been demonstrated to be a powerful theoretical framework for investigating coarse-grained dynamical properties of neuronal networks. The moment equations arising from the kinetic theory are a system of (1 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) on a bounded domain with nonlinear bou...
متن کاملOn kinetic theory viscosity in a rotating gas
The subject of angular momentum transport is important in theories concerning accretion disks. The αmodel of Shakura and Sunyaev1) assumes outward transportation of angular momentum due to some viscous force. This viscosity is believed to originate from turbulence, because the molecular viscosity is far too small in this case. Because the viscosity formula for turbulence is not well known, gene...
متن کاملScaling and Expansion of Moment Equations in Kinetic Theory
The set of generalized 13 moment equations for molecules interacting with power law potentials [Struchtrup, Multiscale Model. Simul. 3:211 (2004)] forms the base for an investigation of expansion methods in the Knudsen number and other scaling parameters. The scaling parameters appear in the equations by introducing dimensionless quantities for all variables and their gradients. Only some of th...
