Close to equilibrium, the kinetic coefficients of a thermodynamic system must satisfy a set of symmetry conditions, which follow from the Onsager-Casimir principle. Here, we show that, if a system of hydrodynamic equations is analysed from…
We present the derivation of the hydrodynamic limit under Eulerian scaling for a general class of one-dimensional interacting particle systems with two or more conservation laws. Following Yau's relative entropy method it turns out that in…

Derivation of governing equations for multiphase flow on the base of thermodynamically compatible systems theory is presented. The mixture is considered as a continuum in which the multiphase character of the flow is taken into account. The…
The Euler-$\alpha$ equations model the averaged motion of an ideal incompressible fluid when filtering over spatial scales smaller than $\alpha$. We show that there exists $\beta>1$ such that weak solutions to the two and three dimensional…
We investigate the rheology of granular materials via molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous, simple shear flows of soft, frictional, noncohesive spheres. In agreement with previous results for frictionless particles, we observe…
The continuum equations of fluid mechanics are rederived with the intention of keeping certain mechanical and thermodynamic concepts separate. A new "mechanical" mass density is created to be used in computing inertial quantities, whereas…
We introduce a new regularization model for incompressible fluid flow, which is a regularization of the EMAC formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) that we call EMAC-Reg. The EMAC (energy, momentum, and angular momentum…
