On the motion of charged particles subject to random forces and fields
(2009)In plasma physics, it is often necessary to study the motion of a charged particle in a magnetic field, modelling the effect of collisions by additive random forces. Following Langevin, the force is taken to be the sum of ... -
Preliminary design of a Knudsen pump
(2011)In this work, the phenomenon of thermal transpiration, also referred to as “thermal creep”, is studied. The Knudsen pump, is a type of vacuum pump that works by the principle of thermal transpiration. First of all, the ... -
Rarefied gas flow between moving plates with heat transfer
(2009)The state of a single-species monatomic gas under rarefied conditions remains a fundamental research problem with important applications. The most powerful approaches to handle this type of flows is the Direct Simulation ...
