Teorie dynamických systémů
A computer-aided method for accurately carrying out the Chapman-Enskog expansion of the Boltzmann equation, including its inelastic variant, is presented and employed to derive a hydrodynamic description of a dilute binary mixture of smooth inelastic spheres. Constitutive relations, formally valid for all physical values of the coefficients of restitution, are calculated by carrying out the pertinent Chapman-Enskog expansion to sufficient high orders in the Sonine polynomials to ensure numerical...
