Kinetic Transport Theory Christian Schmeiser
Kinetic transport equations are mathematical descriptions of the dynamics of large particle ensembles in terms of a phase space (i.e. position-velocity space) distribution function. The PDF covers the following topics related to Kinetic Transport Theory : A formal derivation of the Boltzmann equation, Formal properties and macroscopic limits, Velocity averaging, Global existence for the Boltzmann equation.

A kinetic theory of gases and liquids
The main object of this book is to formulate a Kinetic Theory of certain properties of matter, which shall apply equally well to matter in any state. The book has also been brought up to date in matters not connected with molecular collision, and has been treated in a way so that the results are connected as directly as possible with the results of experiment.
