Acceleration Waves in Rational Extended Thermodynamics of Rarefied Monatomic Gases
Rational Extended Thermodynamics theories with different number of moments are usually introduced to study non-equilibrium phenomena in rarefied gases. Here, we use them to describe one-dimensional acceleration waves in a rarefied monatomic gas. In particular, we focus on the degeneracy of the accel...
