The dynamics of the expansion of a Lennard-Jones system, initially confined at high density and subsequently expanding freely in the vacuum, is confronted to an expanding statistical ensemble, derived in the diluted quasi-ideal Boltzmann…
Membrane viscosity is known to play a central role in the transient dynamics of isolated viscoelastic capsules by decreasing their deformation, inducing shape oscillations and reducing the loading time, that is, the time required to reach…

Linear theory is used to determine the stability of the self-gravitating, rapidly (and nonuniformly) rotating, two-dimensional, and collisional particulate disk against small-amplitude gravity perturbations. A gas-kinetic theory approach is…
