Unsteady flows of a rarefied gas in a full space caused by an oscillatory motion of an infinitely wide plate in its normal direction is investigated numerically on the basis of the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model of the Boltzmann equation. The present notes aim at showing the properties and difficulties inherent to moving boundary problems in kinetic theory of gases using a simple one-dimensional setting.
