One of the central problems in the study of rarefied gas dynamics is to find the steady-state solution of the Boltzmann equation quickly. When the Knudsen number is large, i.e. the system is highly rarefied, the conventional iteration…

In a recent paper by Lasseux, Vald\'{e}s-Parada and Porter (J.~Fluid~Mech. \textbf{805} (2016) 118-146), it is found that the apparent gas permeability of the porous media is a nonlinear function of the Knudsen number. However, this result…

There are limits of validity of classical constitutive laws such as Fourier and Navier-Stokes equations, phenomena beyond those limits have been experimentally found many decades ago. However, it is still not clear what theory would be…
The linear stability analysis of the Boltzmann kinetic equation has recently garnered research interest due to its potential applications in space exploration, where rarefaction effects can render the Navier Stokes equations invalid. Since…
We consider the Boltzmann equation for a gas in a horizontal slab, subject to a gravitational force. The boundary conditions are of diffusive type, specifying the wall temperatures, so that the top temperature is lower than the bottom one…
