Abstract

The Enskog equation is solved by a numerical method which combines finite difference discretization with Monte Carlo quadrature techniques for the evaluation of the collision integral. The method is applied to the study of two one-dimensional problems in the kinetic theory of a dense hard sphere gas. The Enskog theory solutions are also compared with molecular dynamics simulations.
