Publisher Synopsis
From the reviews:"The main topic of the book is rarefied gas dynamics which can be defined as the study of gas flows in which the distance between two subsequent collisions of a molecule ... is not negligible in comparison with the length typical for the surrounding structure. ... The book will be useful to specialists in the mathematical theory of fluids. It can serve also those who are beginners in this area provided they have some erudition in mathematics on graduate level." (Ivan Straskraba, Applications of Mathematics, Vol. 54 (4), 2009) Read more...
