The generalization of the Boltzmann equation is realized by taking into account the alteration of the distribution function on scales of the collision time order. The generalized hydrodynamic equations are derived on the basis of the generalized Boltzmann equation. The strict theory of turbulence on the Kolmogorov scale is developed. Examples and issues are given for the shock wave structure and sound wave propagation calculations.

The structure of optical dispersive shock waves in nematic liquid crystals is investigated as the power of the optical beam is varied, with six regimes identified, which complements previous work pertinent to low power beams only. It is found that the dispersive shock wave structure depends critically on the input beam power. In addition, it is known that nematic dispersive shock waves are resonant and the structure of this resonance is also critically dependent on the beam power. Whitham modulation theory is used to find solutions for the six regimes with the existence intervals for each identified. These dispersive shock wave solutions are compared with full numerical solutions of the nematic equations, and excellent agreement is found.
