One-dimensional kinetic models of granular flows. (English) Zbl 0981.76098

Summary: We introduce and discuss a one-dimensional kinetic model of Boltzmann equation with dissipative collisions and variable coefficient of restitution. Then, we investigate the behavior of Boltzmann equation in quasi-elastic limit for a wide range of rate functions. By this limit procedure we obtain a class of nonlinear equations classified as nonlinear friction equations. The analysis of the cooling process shows that the nonlinearity of relative velocity is important for the finite time extinction of the solution.
