By choosing the diffusing term of Fokker-Planck type with or without dynamical friction forces. The Cauchy problem for the Diffusive-Vlasov-Poisson-Enskog equation (DVE) and the Cauchy problem for the Fokker-Planck-Vlasov-Poisson-Enskog equation (FPVE) are addressed.vi, 106 leavesBTDapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightLD5655.V856 1993.L495Cauchy problem -- Numerical solutionsReaction-diffusion equationsDissertationhttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-05042006-164524/
