Scaling limits and models in physical processes / Carlo Cercignani, David H. Sattinger.

This is an introductory text, in two parts, on scaling limits and modelling in equations of mathematical physics. The first part is concerned with basic concepts of the kinetic theory of gases which is not only important in its own right but also as a prototype of a mathematical construct central to...
