The quantum hydrodynamic model is primary used for the simulation of resonant tunneling diodes. The current-voltage characteristics of these diodes show negative differential resistance (NDR) effects. For two simplified one-dimensional quantum models derived by means of asymptotic analysis, explicit

It is shown how Brinkman's hierarchy of differentiaCdifference equations for ensemble averages may be directly derived from the Iangevin equation without recourse to the Fokker-Planck equation by expressing that equation as a set of coupled equations in the Hermite polynomials and averaging it using
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
