Physical systems behave according to their underlying dynamical equations which, in turn, can be identified from experimental data. Explaining data requires selecting mathematical models that best capture the data regularities. Identifying…
We analyze the representation of viscous stresses in the one-fluid formulation of the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations, the model on which all computational approaches making use of a fixed mesh to discretize the flow field are grounded.…
The static energy encodes all possible information about the thermodynamics and potential energy (and all related forces) of stratified geophysical fluids. In this paper, we develop a systematic methodology, called static energy…
Shannon entropy in position ($S_{\rvec}$) and momentum ($S_{\pvec}$) spaces, along with their sum ($S_t$) are presented for unit-normalized densities of He, Li$^+$ and Be$^{2+}$ ions, spatially confined at the center of an impenetrable…
This paper proposes a hierarchy of numerical fluxes for the compressible flow equations which are kinetic-energy and pressure equilibrium preserving and asymptotically entropy conservative, i.e., they are able to arbitrarily reduce the…
General relativistic anisotropic fluid models whose fluid flow lines form a shear-free, irrotational, geodesic timelike congruence are examined. These models are of Petrov type D, and are assumed to have zero heat flux and an anisotropic…
In this paper we consider the 14 moments model of Extended Thermodynamics for dense gases and macromolecular fluids. Solutions of the restrictions imposed by the entropy principle and that of Galilean relativity for such a model have been…
As a common view the hydrophobic association between molecular-scale binding partners is supposed to be dominantly driven by entropy. Recent calorimetric experiments and computer simulations heavily challenge this established paradigm by…
We extend the formalism of the statistical theory developed for the 2D Euler equation to the case of shallow water system. Relaxation equations towards the maximum entropy state are proposed, which provide a parametrization of sub-grid…
We study the evolution of Tsallis entropy along the heat flow and establish its concavity in arbitrary dimensions. Extending prior results that were restricted to the one-dimensional setting, we prove that the Tsallis entropy is concave in…
Entropy stabilization of the compressible Euler system is achieved by adapting the averages that are applied to the density and internal energy variables. The approach achieves non-linear robustness despite the use of simplified symmetric…

We propose a unified approach to the formal long-wave reduction of several fluid models for thin-layer incompressible homogeneous flows driven by a constant external force like gravity. The procedure is based on a mathematical coherence…
We develop an axiomatic reconstruction of thermodynamics based entirely on two primitive components: a description of what aspects of a system are observed and a reference measure that encodes the underlying descriptive convention. These…
Motivated by numerical schemes for large scale geophysical flow, we consider the rotating shallow water and Boussinesq equations on the whole space with horizontal kinetic energy backscatter source terms built from negative viscosity and…
Information based thermodynamic logic is revisited. It consists of two parts: Part A applies the modern theory of probability in which an arbitrary convex function \phi is employed as an analytic "device" to express information as…
We present a consistent high-order staggered Lagrangian hydrodynamics framework designed to reconcile an underlying disparity in existing curvilinear formulations: the mismatch between quadrature-based "strong" mass conservation and the…
We introduce a geometric framework to study Newton's equations on infinite-dimensional configuration spaces of diffeomorphisms and smooth probability densities. It turns out that several important PDEs of hydrodynamical origin can be…
A generally relativistic theory of thermodynamics is developed, based on four main physical principles: heat is a local form of energy, therefore described by a thermal energy tensor; conservation of mass, equivalent to conservation of…
