An approach to nonlinear viscoelasticity via metric gradient flows [PDF]
, 2013 We formulate quasistatic nonlinear finite-strain viscoelasticity of rate type as a gradient system. Our focus is on nonlinear dissipation functionals and distances that are related to metrics on weak diffeomorphisms and that ensure time-dependent frame ...

Peculiarities in water use and supply of differentecological plant groups
Бюллетень Почвенного института им. В.В. Докучаева, 2016 Every ecological group of plants including hygrophytes, mesophytes and xerophytes is characterized by a definite narrow interval of the soil water potential, in which the values of relative transpiration cannot be lower than the optimal level (1.0-0.9 ...

Materials in thermodynamic potential gradients [PDF]
Pure and Applied Chemistry, 2003 Abstract In materials that are exposed to thermodynamic potential gradients (i.e., gradients of chemical potentials, electrical potential, temperature, or pressure), transport processes of the mobile components occur. These transport processes and the coupling between different processes are not only of fundamental interest, but are also

Potential-Function Proofs for Gradient Methods.
Theory Comput., 2019 This note discusses proofs of convergence for gradient methods (also called “first-order methods”) based on simple potential-function arguments. We cover methods like gradient descent (for both smooth and non-smooth settings), mirror descent, and some accelerated variants.
