We consider a Boltzmann equation for inelastic particles on the line and prove existence and uniqueness for the solutions.

The study of the fluctuations in the steady state of a heated granular system is reviewed. A Boltzmann-Langevin description can be built requiring consistency with the equations for the one- and two-particle correlation functions. From the Boltzmann-Langevin equation, Langevin equations for the total energy and the transverse velocity field are derived. The existence of a fluctuation-dissipation relation for the transverse velocity field...

The paper is subdivided into two parts. The first presents a recent result by the author concerning the existence of the solution of the Boltzmann equation for Maxwell molecules, without any cutoff in the collision kernel, when the solution depends on just one variable. At variance with the well-known theorem of DiPerna- Lions, conservation of energy is also shown to hold. The second part will concern rarefied gas dynamics problems, governed by the Boltzmann equation and con- cerning...

Our purpose is to estimate numerically the influence of particles on the global viscosity of fluid–particle mixtures. Particles are supposed to rigid, and the surrounding fluid is newtonian. The motion of the mixture is computed directly, i.e. all the particle motions are computed explicitly. Apparent viscosity, based on the force exerted by the fluid on the sliding walls, is computed at each time step of the simulation. In order to perform long–time simulations and still control the...
