Global weak solvability to the regularized viscous compressible heat conductive flow

Jiří Neustupa, Antonín Novotný (1991)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The concept of regularization to the complete system of Navier-Stokes equations for viscous compressible heat conductive fluid is developed. The existence of weak solutions for the initial boundary value problem for the modified equations is proved. Some energy and etropy estimates independent of the parameter of regularization are derived.

Homogenization and diffusion asymptotics of the linear Boltzmann equation

Thierry Goudon, Antoine Mellet (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We investigate the diffusion limit for general conservative Boltzmann equations with oscillating coefficients. Oscillations have a frequency of the same order as the inverse of the mean free path, and the coefficients may depend on both slow and fast variables. Passing to the limit, we are led to an effective drift-diffusion equation. We also describe the diffusive behaviour when the equilibrium function has a non-vanishing flux.
