The Enskog–Vlasov equation is a phenomenological kinetic that extends the Enskog for dense (non-ideal) hard-sphere fluid by adding an attractive soft potential tail to purely repulsive contribution. Simplifying assumptions about pair correlations lead Vlasov-like self-consistent force field adds non-local collision integral. Within limitations imposed underlying assumptions, extension gives abi...
