We consider a reduced dynamics for the first four fluid moments of the onedimensional Vlasov-Poisson equation, namely, the fluid density, fluid velocity, pressure and heat flux. This dynamics depends on an equation of state to close the…
We propose a new reduced model for gravity-driven free-surface flows of shallow elastic fluids. It is obtained by an asymptotic expansion of the upper-convected Maxwell model for elastic fluids. The viscosity is assumed small (of order…
Single component nonrelativistic dissipative fluids are treated independently of reference frames and flow-frames. First the basic fields and their balances, then the related thermodynamic relations and the entropy production are calculated…
A classical long-range-interacting $N$-particle system relaxes to thermal equilibrium on time scales growing with $N$; in the limit $N\to \infty$ such a relaxation time diverges. However, a completely non-collisional relaxation process,…
We derive a consistent set of moments equations for CR-magnetohydrodynamics, assuming a gyrotropic distribution function (DF). Unlike previous efforts we derive a closure, akin to the M1 closure in radiation hydrodynamics (RHD), that is…
Steady plasma flows have been studied almost exclusively in systems with continuous symmetry or in open domains. In the absence of continuous symmetry, the lack of a conserved quantity makes the study of flows intrinsically challenging. In…
We show that the GENERIC model for relativistic heat conduction is a multifluid of Carter. This allows one to compute the multifluid constitutive relations directly from the GENERIC formalism. As a quick application, we prove that, in the…
High-resolution simulations of particle-based kinetic plasma models typically require a high number of particles and thus often become computationally intractable. This is exacerbated in multi-query simulations, where the problem depends on…
