Generic moment systems and FEM-based numerical solutions for the Boltzmann equation

Generic moment systems and FEM-based numerical solutions for the Boltzmann equation

Non-equilibrium gas flow problems occur in many real-world applications: vacuum pumps, micro-electro-mechanical devices among others. Modelling non-equilibrium gas flows accurately and solving those models efficiently are of interest to researchers studying rarefied gas dynamics. In kinetic gas theory, moment method is a technique to reduce the complexity of an underlying …
