31st International Symposium on Rarefied Gas Dynamics
Abstract
Rarefied Gas Dynamics (RGD) is a multidisciplinary field encompassing atomic and molecular physics of gas dynamics, mathematics and computer simulation techniques, underpinning technology developments in aerospace, energy, sustainability, nanotechnology, health, and transport. The topics include rarefied gas flows, hypersonic flows, plasmas flows, jets and plumes, non-equilibrium reacting flows. Its foundations trace back to the fathers of statistical mechanics, Ludwig Boltzmann and James Clerk Maxwell who opened a new path and established a link between the microscopic and macroscopic worlds.
