Grad's systems are considered as the minimal kinetic models where the Chapman-Enskog method can be studied exactly, thereby providing the basis to compare various approximations in extending the hydrodynamic description beyond the Navier-Stokes approximation. Various techniques, such as the method of partial summation, Pade approximants, and invariance principle are compared both in linear and nonlinear situations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-10-14T08:51:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "exact solutions", "grads equations", "grads moment equations", "minimal kinetic models", "classical chapman-enskog derivation" ], "tags": [ "book chapter", "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Annalen der Physik", "year": 2002, "month": "Nov", "volume": 514, "number": 10, "pages": 783 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 61, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002AnP...514..783K" } } }
