Minimum Dissipation Principle in Nonlinear Transport
We extend Onsager’s minimum dissipation principle to stationary states that are only subject to local equilibrium constraints, even when the transport coefficients depend on the thermodynamic forces. Crucial to this generalization is a decomposition of the thermodynamic forces into those that are held fixed by the boundary conditions and the subspace that is orthogonal with respect to the metri...
متن کاملThe Use of the Minimum-dissipation Principle in Tectonophysics
The principle, that the rate of internal viscous dissipation is at a minimum, is incorrect when temperature and velocity fields are linked through temperature-dependent viscosity or density. This makes it inappropriate for the study of spreading ridge – transform fault systems or other plate-tectonic problems with large density stratification resulting from large temperature gradients. Correcti...
متن کاملA variational principle for nonlinear transport equations
We verify -after appropriate modificationsan old conjecture of Brezis-Ekeland [3] concerning the feasibility of a global and variational approach to the problems of existence and uniqueness of solutions of non-linear transport equations, which do not normally fit in an Euler-Lagrange framework. Our method is based on a concept of “anti-self duality” that seems to be inherent in many problems, i...
متن کاملQUANTUM TUNNELING IN MEDIUMS WITH LINEAR AND NONLINEAR DISSIPATION
We have applied the method of integration of the Heisenberg equation of motion proposed by Bender and Dunne, and M. Kamella and M. Razavy to the potential V(q) = v q - µ q with linear and nonlinear dissipation. We concentrate our calculations on the evolution of basis set of Weyl Ordered Operators and calculate the mean position , velocity , the commutation relation [q, p], and the energ...
متن کاملA Practical Approach to Coronal Magnetic Field Extrapolation Based on the Principle of Minimum Dissipation Rate
We present a newly developed approach to solar coronal magnetic field extrapolation from vector magnetograms, based on the Principle of Minimum Dissipation Rate (MDR). The MDR system was derived from a variational problem that is more suitable for an open and externally driven system, like the solar corona. The resulting magnetic field equation is more general than force-free. Its solution can ...
