1. The Solution of the Boltzmann Equation for a Shock Wave
2. We have used the Mott-Smith distribution for Maxwellian force law and υx2 moment equation. The mean free path referred to is that ahead of the shock and is defined in Eq. (44) below.
3. The profile of a steady plane shock wave
4. Structure of a Plane Shock Layer
5. C. Y. Liu and L. Lees, inProceedings of the Second International Conference on Rarefied Gas Dynamics, edited by L. Talbot (Academic Press Inc., New York, 1961). Here the distribution is of the form n1(z)f1(v)+n2(z)f2(v) with fμ(v) of the form of Eq. (2) above, but with uμ and cμ functions ofz.
