A generalized hydrodynamic theory that systematically incorporates elasticity and viscoelasticity had been derived about a quarter of a century ago. It is based on a strictly Euler point of view, as is natural for hydrodynamics. We used and…

This article extends the single-fluid relativistic irreversible thermodynamics theory of {\it M{\"u}ller}, {\it Israel} and {\it Stewart} (hereafter the {MIS} theory) to a multi-fluid system with inherent species interactions. This is…

The formulation of a universal theory for bulk viscosity and heat conduction represents a theoretical challenge for our understanding of relativistic fluid dynamics. Recently, it has been shown that the multifluid variational approach…

The relativistic hydrodynamic system of equations for a perfect fluid obeying a causal equation of state is hyperbolic (Anile 1989 {\it Relativistic Fluids and Magneto-Fluids} (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press)). In this report, we…

We investigate the initial-value problem for the relativistic Euler equations governing isothermal perfect fluid flows, and generalize an approach introduced by LeFloch and Shelukhin in the non-relativistic setting. We establish the…

The causality and stability of a relativistic hydrodynamic theory is shown to require a consensus between, either (i) newer degrees of freedom apart from the fundamental fluid fields, or (ii) a general hydrodynamic frame other than the…

We derive the second order hydrodynamic equations for the relativistic system of multi-components with multiple conserved currents by generalizing the Israel-Stewart theory and Grad's moment method. We find that, in addition to the…

We set up a general framework for systematically building and classifying, in the linear regime, causal and stable dissipative hydrodynamic theories that, alongside with the usual hydrodynamic modes, also allow for an arbitrary number of…

Starting with a brief introduction into the basics of relativistic fluid dynamics, I discuss our current knowledge of a relativistic theory of fluid dynamics in the presence of (mostly shear) viscosity. Derivations based on the generalized…

We introduce a one-dimensional, hyperbolic model for non-Newtonian fluids with finite relaxation time, derived within the framework of Rational Extended Thermodynamics (RET). Unlike classical parabolic models, our formulation preserves…

We discuss a relativistic model for heat conduction, building on a convective variational approach to multi-fluid systems where the entropy is treated as a distinct dynamical entity. We demonstrate how this approach leads to a relativistic…

Theories of physics can be considered viable if the initial value problem and the energy conditions are formulated self-consistently. The former allow a uniquely determined dynamical evolution of the system, and the latter guarantee that…

The Lie symmetry group for 1+1 dimensional relativistic heat-conducting fluid is calculated for two different theories, Eckart and Israel-Stewart and a comparison between the group-invariant solutions has been made. Both fluids were founded…

The stability conditions of a relativistic hydrodynamic theory can be derived directly from the requirement that the entropy should be maximised in equilibrium. Here we use a simple geometrical argument to prove that, if the hydrodynamic…
