Exact summation of the Chapman-Enskog expansion from moment equations. (English) Zbl 0971.82036
Summary: The nonlinear recurrence Chapman-Enskog solution for the linearized Grad ten-moment equations is resummed exactly. Using this solution, the stability of higher-order hydrodynamics in various approximations is discussed.
