We define a characteristic energy density based on the measurement of the two first moments of the extrinsic injected power smoothed over time. Using the stationarity, we show that this definition characterizes an energy per degrees freedom…
The extension of equilibrium thermodynamics to non-equilibrium systems is based on the assumption of "local equilibrium," followed by the assumption that an entropy-density function may be defined, and that this entropy-density would have…
Two coupled, interpenetrating fluids suffer instabilities beyond certain critical counterflows. For ideal fluids, an energetic instability occurs at the point where a sound mode inverts its direction due to the counterflow, while dynamical…
