We start with the equations of the generalized kinetic theory of electrons and phonons. The linearization of the kinetic equations is important in view of the calculation of transport coefficients. Based on a suitable ansatz for the perturbation of the distribution functions, a set of integral equat

A model hierarchy of hydrodynamic and quasi-hydrodynamic equations for plasmas consisting of electrons and ions is presented. The various model equations are obtained from the transient Euler-Poisson system for electrons and ions in the zero-electron-mass limit and/or in the zero-relaxation-time lim
A number of transient and steady-state finite element formulations of the semiconductor drift-diffusion equations are studied and compared with respect to their accuracy and efficiency on a simple test structure (the Mock diode). A new formulation, with a consistent interpolation function used to re
