Transport and Fluctuations in Granular Fluids From Boltzmann Equation to Hydrodynamics, Diffusion and Motor Effects /
This brief offers a concise presentation of granular fluids from the point of view of non-equilibrium statistical physics. The emphasis is on fluctuations, which can be large in granular fluids due to the small system size (the number of grains is many orders of magnitude smaller than in molecular...
