- ItemMultiscale thermodynamics of charged mixtures(Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2021) Vágner, Petr; Pavelka, Michal; Esen, OğulA multiscale theory of interacting continuum mechanics and thermodynamics of mixtures of fluids, electrodynamics, polarization, and magnetization is proposed. The mechanical (reversible) part of the theory is constructed in a purely geometric way by means of semidirect products. This leads to a complex Hamiltonian system with a new Poisson bracket, which can be used in principle with any energy functional. The thermodynamic (irreversible) part is added as gradient dynamics, generated by derivatives of a dissipation potential, which makes the theory part of the GENERIC framework. Subsequently, Dynamic MaxEnt reductions are carried out, which lead to reduced GENERIC models for smaller sets of state variables. Eventually, standard engineering models are recovered as the low-level limits of the detailed theory. The theory is then compared to recent literature. © 2020, The Author(s).
- ItemGENERIC framework for reactive fluid flows(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Zafferi, Andrea; Peschka, Dirk; Thomas, MaritaWe describe reactive fluid flows in terms of the formalism General Equation for Non-Equilibrium Reversible-Irreversible Coupling also known as GENERIC. Together with the formalism, we present the thermodynamical and mechanical foundations for the treatment of fluid flows using continuous fields and present a clear relation and transformation between a Lagrangian and an Eulerian formulation of the corresponding systems of partial differential equations. We bring the abstract framework to life by providing many physically relevant examples for reactive compressive fluid flows.
- ItemGENERIC for dissipative solids with bulk-interface interaction(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin; Thomas, MaritaThe modeling framework of GENERIC was originally introduced by Grmela and Öttinger for thermodynamically closed systems. It is phrased with the aid of the energy and entropy as driving functionals for reversible and dissipative processes and suitable geometric structures. Based on the definition functional derivatives we propose a GENERIC framework for systems with bulk-interface interaction and apply it to discuss the GENERIC structure of models for delamination processes.
