Sound Propagation according to Kinetic Models
Description:
"Sound propagation and the initial value problem in kinetic theory are investigated. Linearized forms of certain kinetic models suggested by Gross and Jackson employed. The most general model contains three relaxation times and is capable of producing Euler, Navier-Strokes, Burnett and thirteen moments equations for smooth phenomena. A study of dispersion relations is made and some novel features are uncovered. One finds that kinetic models are unable to describe phenomena of higher than a cert…
