<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this work, we will introduce a general framework to derive the thermodynamics of a fluid mechanical system, which guarantees the consistence between the energetic variational approaches with the laws of thermodynamics. In particular, we will focus on the coupling between the thermal and mechanical forces. We follow the framework for a classical gas with ideal gas equilibrium and present the existences of weak solutions to this thermodynamic system coupled with the Brinkman-type equation to govern the velocity field.</p>

AbstractWe study the existence of weak solutions to a Newtonian fluid∼non-Newtonian fluid mixed-type equation $$ {u_{t}}= \operatorname{div} \bigl(b(x,t){ \bigl\vert {\nabla A(u)} \bigr\vert ^{p(x) - 2}}\nabla A(u)+\alpha (x,t)\nabla A(u) \bigr)+f(u,x,t). $$ u t = div ( b ( x , t ) | ∇ A ( u ) | p ( x ) − 2 ∇ A ( u ) + α ( x , t ) ∇ A ( u ) ) + f ( u , x , t ) . We assume that $A'(s)=a(s)\geq 0$ A ′ ( s ) = a ( s ) ≥ 0 , $A(s)$ A ( s ) is a strictly increasing function, $A(0)=0$ A ( 0 ) = 0 , $b(x,t)\geq 0$ b ( x , t ) ≥ 0 , and $\alpha (x,t)\geq 0$ α ( x , t ) ≥ 0 . If $$ b(x,t)=\alpha (x,t)=0,\quad (x,t)\in \partial \Omega \times [0,T], $$ b ( x , t ) = α ( x , t ) = 0 , ( x , t ) ∈ ∂ Ω × [ 0 , T ] , then we prove the stability of weak solutions without the boundary value condition.

In this work, we propose a set of conditions such that an ultrarelativistic classical gas can present a photon-like behavior. This is achieved by assigning a zero chemical potential to the ultrarelativistic ideal gas. The resulting behavior is similar to that of a Wien photon gas. It is found to be possible only for gases made of very lightweight particles such as neutrinos, as long as we treat them as classical particles, and it depends on the spin degeneracy factor. This procedure allows establishing an analogy between an evaporating gas and the cavity radiation.

Using the grand canonical ensemble, the classical Van Hove correlation function G(r, t) is expanded in a power series in density. The zero density limit is the ideal gas result. We have derived, for a classical gas of hard spheres, exact expressions for [Formula: see text], the zero density derivative of the correlation function, and its Fourier transforms. These involve only two particle dynamics. The first two terms in the density expansions provide representation of the correlation functions for appropriate ranges of density and correlation function arguments. We also show that the same result can be obtained from generalized kinetic equations. To this order in density, the moment relations and the time derivatives of I(q, t) at t = 0+ are satisfied. Numerical results are compared with those of Mazenko, Wei, and Yip and with those of the Boltzmann equation and they show the expected behavior.

Starting from simple observations regarding heat flows for static black holes (or any thermodynamic system with [Formula: see text]), we get inequalities which restrict their change in energy and adiabatic curves in the [Formula: see text] plane. From these observations, we then derive an exact efficiency formula for virtually any holographic heat engine defined by a cycle in the [Formula: see text] plane, whose working substance is a static black hole. Moreover, we get an upper bound for its efficiency and show that for a certain class of black holes, this bound is universal and achieved by an “ideal gas” hole. Finally, we compute exact efficiencies for some particular and new engines.

We consider the finite element approximation of the Oldroyd-B system of equations, which models a dilute polymeric fluid, in a bounded domain [Formula: see text], d = 2 or 3, subject to no flow boundary conditions. Our schemes are based on approximating the pressure and the symmetric conformation tensor by either (a) piecewise constants or (b) continuous piecewise linears. In case (a) the velocity field is approximated by continuous piecewise quadratics or a reduced version, where the tangential component on each simplicial edge (d = 2) or face (d = 3) is linear. In case (b) the velocity field is approximated by continuous piecewise quadratics or the mini-element. We show that both of these types of schemes satisfy a free energy bound, which involves the logarithm of the conformation tensor, without any constraint on the time step for the backward Euler-type time discretization. This extends the results of Boyaval et al. (Free-energy-dissipative schemes for the Oldroyd-B model, ESAIM: Math. Model. Numer. Anal.43 (2009) 523–561) on this free energy bound. There a piecewise constant approximation of the conformation tensor was necessary to treat the advection term in the stress equation, and a restriction on the time step, based on the initial data, was required to ensure that the approximation to the conformation tensor remained positive definite. Furthermore, for our approximation (b) in the presence of an additional dissipative term in the stress equation and a cut-off on the conformation tensor on certain terms in the system, similar to those introduced in Barrett and Süli (Existence of global weak solutions to dumbbell models for dilute polymers with microscopic cut-off, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci.18 (2008) 935–971) for the microscopic–macroscopic finitely extensible nonlinear elastic model of a dilute polymeric fluid, we show (subsequence) convergence, as the spatial and temporal discretization parameters tend to zero, toward global-in-time weak solutions of this regularized Oldroyd-B system. Hence, we prove existence of global-in-time weak solutions to this regularized model. Moreover, in the case d = 2 carry out this convergence in the absence of cut-offs, but with a time step restriction dependent on the spatial discretization parameter, and hence show existence of a global-in-time weak solution to the Oldroyd-B system with an additional dissipative term in the stress equation.

UDC 517.9 The paper deals with the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial weak solutions for the 𝓅 ( x ) -Kirchhoff-type problem, u = Δ u = 0 o n ∂ Ω . By using variational approach and Krasnoselskii’s genus theory, we prove the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the 𝓅 ( x ) -Kirchhoff-type equation.
