Generalized Boltzmann Physical Kinetics
Elsevier Science 2004; US$ 205.00The most important result obtained by Prof. B. Alexeev and reflected in the book is connected with new theory of transport processes in gases, plasma and liquids. It was shown by Prof. B. Alexeev that well-known Boltzmann equation, which is the basement of the classical kinetic theory, is wrong in the definite sense. Namely in the Boltzmann equation... more...
Thermodynamics of Flowing Systems
Oxford University Press 1994; US$ 299.99This much-needed monograph presents a systematic, step-by-step approach to the continuum modeling of flow phenomena exhibited within materials endowed with a complex internal microstructure, such as polymers and liquid crystals. By combining the principles of Hamiltonian mechanics with those of irreversible thermodynamics, Antony N. Beris and Brian... more...
Radiation Hydrodynamics
Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 69.00This broad and up-to-date treatment provides an accessible introduction to the theory and the large-scale simulation methods currently used in radiation hydrodynamics. A valuable text for research scientists and graduate students in physics and astrophysics. more...
Transport Phenomena and Kinetic Theory
Springer 2007; US$ 109.99The study of kinetic equations related to gases, semiconductors, photons, traffic flow, and other systems has developed rapidly because of its role as a mathematical tool in areas such as engineering, and others. This book presents an overview of developments in the field of mathematical kinetic theory with a focus on modeling complex systems. more...
Porous Media
Elsevier Science 1991; US$ 124.00This book examines the relationship between transport properties and pore structure of porous material. Models of pore structure are presented with a discussion of how such models can be used to predict the transport properties of porous media. Portions of the book are devoted to interpretations of experimental results in this area and directions for... more...
Multicomponent Interfacial Transport
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99A thermodynamically consistent description of the transport across interfaces in mixtures has for a long time been an open issue. This research clarifies that the interface between a liquid and a vapor in a mixture is in local equilibrium during evaporation and condensation. It implies that the thermodynamics developed for interfaces by Gibbs can be... more...
Computational Methods in Transport
Springer 2008; US$ 99.99The focus of this book deals with a cross cutting issue affecting all transport disciplines, whether it be photon, neutron, charged particle or neutrino transport. That is, verification and validation (V&V). In other words, are the equations being solved correctly and are the correct equations being solved? Verification and validation assures a scientist,... more...
Scaling Analysis in Modeling Transport and Reaction Processes
Wiley 2007; US$ 150.00This book is unique as the first effort to expound on the subject of systematic scaling analysis. Not written for a specific discipline, the book targets any reader interested in transport phenomena and reaction processes. The book is logically divided into chapters on the use of systematic scaling analysis in fluid dynamics, heat transfer, mass transfer,... more...
An Introduction to the Boltzmann Equation and Transport Processes in Gases
Springer 2010; US$ 84.99This book deals with the classical kinetic theory of gases. Its aim is to present the basic principles of this theory within an elementary framework and from a more rigorous approach based on the Boltzmann equation. The subjects are presented in a self-contained manner such that the readers can understand and learn some methods used in the kinetic... more...
Numerical Methods in Multidimensional Radiative Transfer
Springer 2008; US$ 129.99Offers an overview of the numerical modelling of radiation fields in multidimensional geometries. This book covers advances and problems in the mathematical treatment of the radiative transfer equation, a partial integro-differential equation of high dimension that describes the propagation of the radiation in various fields. more...
