A flow analysis on symmetric and asymmetric reactions from 100 to 400
MeV/nucleon is performed in the framework of the semiclassical Landau-
Vlasov approach. In this energy range our results present two differen
t trends. At lower energies it is governed by the momentum dependence
of the nuclear optical potential, whereas at higher energies its densi
ty dependence plays a crucial role leading to a rather pronounced sens
itivity to the incompressibility modulus. The nonlocality of the nucle
ar interaction is relevant for asymmetric colliding systems. With an i
ncompressibility modulus in the vicinity of 200 MeV, an excellent quan
titative description of the flow behavior with incident energy and imp
act parameter or the system mass is provided.
