This book presents applications to several fluid dynamics problems in both the 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 chemical reactions are also included. This is an up-to-date book on the applications of the discrete Boltzmann equation.

This volume will interest researchers and others involved with high-precision measurements and the development of mathematical tools for this purpose. Advances in metrology depend on improvements in scientific and technical knowledge, the quality of instruments, a better use of advanced mathematical tools and the development of new ones.A tradition of close cooperation between metrologists and mathematicians, while found elsewhere, is lacking in Italy. This workshop wishes to start such a cooperation by providing a common meeting ground. Several industrial sectors, particularly those of instrumentation and software, are likely to benefit from this process, since metrology has a high impact on the overall quality of industrial products and applied mathematics is becoming increasingly important in industrial processes.
