We propose a new ES-BGK model for diatomic gases which allows translational–rotational and translational–vibrational energy exchanges, as given by Landau–Teller Jeans relaxation equations. This is consistent with the general definition of vibrational rotational collision numbers that are also commonly used in DSMC solvers. It proved to satisfy H-theorem give correct transport coefficients, up v...

INTRODUCTION Little is known about how to develop collaborative multidisciplinary research teams. METHODS Following a comprehensive needs assessment, we developed a curriculum-based, multi-disciplinary, didactic and experiential Translational Leadership training program grounded in adult learning theory. In addition, we constructed collaborative clinical/translational research experiences for...
