A Variational Formulation of Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics for Discrete Open Systems with Mass and Heat Transfer [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 We propose a variational formulation for the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of discrete open systems, i.e., discrete systems which can exchange mass and heat with the exterior.

A Variational Formulation of Symplectic Noncommutative Mechanics [PDF]
International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2007 The standard lore in noncommutative physics is the use of first order variational description of a dynamical system to probe the space noncommutativity and its consequences in the dynamics in phase space.

Entropy and Variational Formulation of Relativistic Fluid Dynamics [PDF]
EntropyIn this work, the earlier variational analysis of classical non-barotropic flows is extended to the special relativistic non-barotropic case. Specifically, we present a new Eulerian variational formulation for relativistic non-barotropic flows, based on ...

Dyson–Schwinger Approach to Hamiltonian QCD
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Dyson–Schwinger equations are an established, powerful non-perturbative tool for QCD. In the Hamiltonian formulation of a quantum field theory they can be used to perform variational calculations with non-Gaussian wave functionals.

A General Purpose Variational Formulation for Boundary Value Problems of Orders Greater than Two [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2021 We develop a new general purpose variational formulation, particularly suitable for solving boundary value problems of orders greater than two. The functional related to this variational formulation requires only Η1 regularity in order to be well-defined.

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2022 A new variational approach for a boundary value problem in mathematical physics is proposed. By considering two-field Lagrange multipliers, we deliver a variational formulation consisting of a mixed variational problem which is equivalent with a saddle ...

Variational Derivation of Truncated Timoshenko-Ehrenfest Beam Theory [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2022 The beam theory allowing for rotary inertia and shear deformation and without the fourth order derivative with respect to time as well as without the slope inertia, as was developed by Elishakoff through the dynamic equilibrium consideration, is derived ...

Variational formulation of resolvent analysis [PDF]
Physical Review Fluids, 2022 The conceptual picture underlying resolvent analysis(RA) is that the nonlinear term in the Navier-Stokes(NS) equations provides an intrinsic forcing to the linear dynamics, a description inspired by control theory. The inverse of the linear operator, defined as the resolvent, is interpreted as a transfer function between the forcing and the velocity ...
