Includes the results on the theory of wave propagation, thermodynamics, and the stability of the solutions to partial differential equations.

Presents applications to several fluid dynamics problems both in bounded and unbounded domains in the framework of the discrete velocity models of kinetic theory. The proposition of new models for dense gases, gases with multi-components and gases with che

The book contains recent contributions in the field of waves propagation and stability in continuous media. In particular, the contributions consider discontinuity and shock waves, stability in fluid dynamics, small parameter problems, kinetic theories towards continuum models, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and numerical applications. The volume is the fourth in a series published by World Scientific since 1999. The following distinguished authors contribute to the present book: S Bianchini, R Caflish, C Cercignani, Y Choquet-Bruhat, C Dafermos, L Desvillettes, V Giovangigli, H Gouin, I...

This book contains about 20 invited papers and 40 contributed papers in the research areas of theoretical continuum mechanics, kinetic theory and numerical applications of continuum mechanics. Collectively these papers give a good overview of the activities and developments in these fields in the last few years.
