We derive linear fluctuating hydrodynamics as the low density limit of a deterministic system of particles at equilibrium. The proof builds upon previous results of the authors where the asymptotics of the covariance of the fluctuation…
It is known that a finite-size homogeneous granular fluid develops an hydrodynamic-like instability when dissipation crosses a threshold value. This instability is analyzed in terms of modified hydrodynamic equations: first, a source term…
We investigate the behavior of a one-dimensional diatomic fluid under a shock wave excitation. We find that the properties of the resulting shock wave are in striking contrast with those predicted by hydrodynamic and kinetic approaches,…
