Hydrodynamics from kinetic models of conservative economies [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we introduce and discuss the passage to hy- drodynamic equations for kinetic models of conservative economies, in which the density of wealth depends on additional parameters, like the propensity to invest. As in kinetic theory of rarefied
