Ecological Systems and Devices Annotation << Back Problems of the generalized Boltzmann physical kinetics and its applications Alekseev B.V. This paper addresses the fundamental principles of generalized Boltzmann physical kinetics, which introduces terms ac-counting for the variation of the distribution function over times of the order of the collision time into the Boltzmann equa-tion. The paper is primarily aimed at clarifying the qualitative aspects of the theory whose mathematical formalism was developed in the author’s earlier work. The application of the generalized Boltzmann equation to certain classical transport processes is discussed.
