In recent years kinetic theory has developed in many areas of the physical sciences and engineering, and has extended the borders of its traditional fields of application. New applications in traffic flow engineering, granular media modeling, and polymer and phase transition physics have resulted in new numerical algorithms which depart from traditional stochastic Monte--Carlo methods. This monograph is a self-contained presentation of such recently developed aspects of kinetic theory, as well as a comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory. Emphasizing modeling techniques and numerical methods, the book provides a unified treatment of kinetic equations not found in more focused theoretical or applied works. The book is divided into two parts. Part I is devoted to the most fundamental kinetic model: the Boltzmann equation of rarefied gas dynamics. Additionally, widely used numerical methods for the discretization of the Boltzmann equation are reviewed: the Monte--Carlo method, spectral methods, and finite-difference methods.Part II considers specific applications: plasma kinetic modeling using the Landau--Fokker--Planck equations, traffic flow modeling, granular media modeling, quantum kinetic modeling, and coagulation-fragmentation problems. "Modeling and Computational Methods of Kinetic Equations" will be accessible to readers working in different communities where kinetic theory is important: graduate students, researchers and practitioners in mathematical physics, applied mathematics, and various branches of engineering. The work may be used for self-study, as a reference text, or in graduate-level courses in kinetic theory and its applications.

Implicit-explicit (IMEX) time discretization methods have proven to be highly effective for the numerical solution of a wide class of evolutionary partial differential equations (PDEs) across various contexts. These methods have become mainstream for solving evolutionary PDEs, particularly in the fields of hyperbolic and kinetic equations.The first book on the subject, Implicit-Explicit Methods for Evolutionary Partial Differential Equations provides an in-depth yet accessible approach. The authors summarize and illustrate the construction, analysis, and application of IMEX methods using examples, test cases, and implementation details; guide readers through the various methods and teach them how to select and use the one most appropriate for their needs; and demonstrate how to identify stiff terms and effectively implement high-order methods in time for a variety of systems of PDEs.Readers interested in learning modern techniques for the effective numerical solution of evolutionary PDEs with multiple time scales will find in this book a unified, compact, and accessible treatment.

The 2008 global financial and economic crisis led to a significant increase in unemployment rates in most developed economies, yet despite the rising supply of labor, a high share of employers claim that they cannot find the right talent and skills. Concerns that economic restructuring and changing skill needs associated with new technologies and workplace organization practices will not be met by an adequately skilled workforce, has placed the issue of skill mismatch – the incongruence between skill supply and skill demand – high up in the policy agenda. This volume contains eleven original research articles which deal with the linkages between education and skills and the causes and consequences of different types of skill mismatch. Topics include the way graduate jobs can be defined, the labor market decisions and outcomes of graduates, the determinants of the overeducation wage penalty, the determinants and consequences of underskilling, the wage return of skills, the impact of skill mismatch on aggregate productivity, and the role of work-related training and job complexity on skill development.

The present volume contains selected papers issued from the sixth edition of the International Conference "Numerical methods for hyperbolic problems" that took place in 2019 in Málaga (Spain). NumHyp conferences, which began in 2009, focus on recent developments and new directions in the field of numerical methods for hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) and their applications. The 11 chapters of the book cover several state-of-the-art numerical techniques and applications, including the design of numerical methods with good properties (well-balanced, asymptotic-preserving, high-order accurate, domain invariant preserving, uncertainty quantification, etc.), applications to models issued from different fields (Euler equations of gas dynamics, Navier-Stokes equations, multilayer shallow-water systems, ideal magnetohydrodynamics or fluid models to simulate multiphase flow, sediment transport, turbulent deflagrations, etc.), and the development of new nonlinear dispersive shallow-water models.The volume is addressed to PhD students and researchers in Applied Mathematics, Fluid Mechanics, or Engineering whose investigation focuses on or uses numerical methods for hyperbolic systems. It may also be a useful tool for practitioners who look for state-of-the-art methods for flow simulation.

This book contains an expanded and smoothed version of lecture notes delivered by the authors at the Advanced School on Numerical Solutions of Partial Di?- ential Equations: New Trends and Applications, which took place at the Centre de Recerca Matem' atica (CRM) in Bellaterra (Barcelona) from November 15th to 22nd, 2007. The book has three parts. The ?rst part, by Silvia Bertoluzza and Silvia Falletta, is devoted to the use of wavelets to derive some new approaches in the numerical solution of PDEs, showing in particular how the possibility of wr- ing equivalent norms for the scale of Besov spaces allows to write down some new methods.Thesecondpart,byGiovanniRusso,providesanoverviewofthemodern finite-volume and finite-difference shock-capturing schemes for systems of cons- vationandbalancelaws,with emphasisingiving auni?ed viewofsuchschemesby identifying the essential aspects of their construction. In the last part Chi-Wang Shugivesageneralintroductionto thediscontinuousGalerkinmethods forsolving some classes of PDEs, discussing cell entropy inequalities, nonlinear stability and error estimates.The school that originated these notes was born with the objective of p- viding an opportunity for PhD students, recent PhD doctorates and researchers in general in ?elds of applied mathematics and engineering to catch up with - portant developments in the ?elds and/or to get in touch with state-of-the-art numerical techniques that are not covered in usual courses at graduate level.
