Description for Granular Gases
Hardback. Granular gases are diluted many-particle systems in which the mean free path of the particles is much larger than the typical particle size, and where particle collisions occur dissipatively. This work examines the dissipation of kinetic energy which can lead to effects like cluster formation. Editor(s): Poeschel, Thorsten; Luding, Stefan. Series: Lecture Notes in Physics. Num Pages: 457 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHFC; PHFG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 25. Weight in Grams: 1031.
"Granular Gases" are diluted many-particle systems in which the mean free path of the particles is much larger than the typical particle size, and where particle collisions occur dissipatively. The dissipation of kinetic energy can lead to effects such as the formation of clusters, anomalous diffusion and characteristic shock waves to name but a few. The book is organized as follows: Part I comprises the rigorous theoretical results for the dilute limit. The detailed properties of binary collisions are described in Part II. Part III contains experimental investigations of granular gases. Large-scale behaviour as found in astrophysical systems is discussed ... Read more
