DOI 10.1142/s0218127404011648
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The process of equilibration of a colliding hard-disks system is studied in the framework of classical mechanics. The method consists of dividing the nonequilibrium system into the interacting subsystems; the evolution one of these subsystems is analyzed employing generalized Lagrange and Liouville equations. The subsystem–subsystem interaction force is considered as an evolution parameter. The mechanism by which its system equilibrates is described.
