Newton' viscosity law for the momentum flux and Fourier's law for the heat flux define Navier-Stokes hydrodynamics for a simple, one component fluid. There is ample evidence that a hydrodynamic description applies as well to a mesoscopic…
Navier-Stokes equations are known as hydrodynamic equations which take account of effects of dissipations. There are, however, problems in the relativistic Navier-Stokes equations, i.e. the equations violate causality. Israel-Stewart…
