Description for Slow Rarefied Flows
Hardback. Presents the mathematical tools used to deal with problems related to slow rarefied flows, with particular attention to basic concepts and problems which arise in the study of micro- and nanomachines. This book presents the mathematical theory of slow flows, provides a justification for the use of the linearized Boltzmann equation, and more. Series: Progress in Mathematical Physics. Num Pages: 177 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TJF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 12. Weight in Grams: 438.
This volume is intended to coverthe presentstatus of the mathematicaltools used to deal with problems related to slow rare?ed ?ows. The meaning and usefulness of the subject, and the extent to which it is covered in the book, are discussed in some detail in the introduction. In short, I tried to present the basic concepts and the techniques used in probing mathematical questions and problems which arise when studying slow rare?ed ?ows in environmental sciences and micromachines. For the book to be up-to-date without being excessively large, it was necessary to omit some topics, which are treated elsewhere, as indicated ... Read more

Reviews for Slow Rarefied Flows
From the reviews: “The main topic of the book is rarefied gas dynamics which can be defined as the study of gas flows in which the distance between two subsequent collisions of a molecule … is not negligible in comparison with the length typical for the surrounding structure. … The book will be useful to specialists in the mathematical ...
