This two-volume monograph is a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of the theory and applications of kinetic equations. The second volume covers discrete velocity models of the Boltzmann equation, results on the Landau equation, and numerical (deterministic and stochastic) methods for the solution of kinetic equations.

This two-volume monograph is a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of the theory and applications of kinetic equations. The first volume covers many-particle dynamics, Maxwell models of the Boltzmann equation (including their exact and self-similar solutions), and hydrodynamic limits beyond the Navier-Stokes level.
