In this paper, we present a systematic framework to derive a Lagrangian scheme for porous medium type generalized diffusion equations by employing a discrete energetic variational approach. Such discrete energetic variational approaches are…

The Onsager principle provides a variational route to the phenomenological equations of dissipative dynamics through the minimization of the Rayleighian. We develop a covariant formulation of the Onsager principle for active systems,…

Variational principles are important in the investigation of large classes of physical systems. They can be used both as analytical methods as well as starting points for the formulation of powerful computational techniques such as…

An interesting family of geometric integrators for Lagrangian systems can be defined using discretizations of the Hamilton's principle of critical action. This family of geometric integrators is called variational integrators. In this…

We develop a variational method for constructing positive entropy invariant measures of Lagrangian systems without assuming transversal intersections of stable and unstable manifolds, and without restrictions to the size of non-integrable…

We investigate the existence of minimizers of variational models with Eulerian-Lagrangian formulations. We consider energy functionals depending on the deformation of a body, defined on its reference configuration, and an Eulerian map…

We establish a Lagrangian variational framework for general relativistic continuum theories that permits the development of the process of Lagrangian reduction by symmetry in the relativistic context. Starting with a continuum version of…

We present a systematic computational approach to the study of self-similar dynamics. The approach, through the use of what can be thought of as a ``dynamic pinning condition" factors out self-similarity, and yields a transformed, non-local…

Variational integrators are a special kind of geometric discretisation methods applicable to any system of differential equations that obeys a Lagrangian formulation. In this thesis, variational integrators are developed for several…

Using an alternative notion of entropy introduced by Datta, the max-entropy, we present a new simplified framework to study the minimizers of the specific free energy for random fields which are weakly dependent in the sense of Lewis,…

Switching dynamical systems provide a powerful, interpretable modeling framework for inference in time-series data in, e.g., the natural sciences or engineering applications. Since many areas, such as biology or discrete-event systems, are…

The theory of linear stochastic thermodynamics is developed for periodically driven systems in contact with a single reservoir. Appropriate thermodynamic forces and fluxes are identified, starting from the entropy production for a Markov…

We apply the stochastic variational method to the action of the ideal fluid and showed that the Navier-Stokes equation is derived. In this variational method, the effect of dissipation is realized as the direct consequence of the…

Recently, Lobb and Nijhoff initiated the study of variational (Lagrangian) structure of discrete integrable systems from the perspective of multi-dimensional consistency. In the present work, we follow this line of research and develop a…

We consider systems characterized by the presence of a rapidly oscillating force. A general method is presented for the construction of the effective action governing the large-scale nonlinear dynamics of such systems order by order in…

Eulerian-Lagrangian models of particle-laden (multiphase) flows describe fluid flow and particle dynamics in the Eulerian and Lagrangian frameworks respectively. Regardless of whether the flow is turbulent or laminar, the particle dynamics…

The random intensity of noise approach to one-dimensional Laval-Dubrulle-Nazarenko type model having deductive support from the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation is used to describe Lagrangian acceleration statistics of a fluid…

The least action principle, through its variational formulation, possesses a finalist aspect. It explicitly appears in the fractional calculus framework, where Euler-Lagrange equations obtained so far violate the causality principle. In…

Granular materials fluidized by a rapidly vibrating bottom plate often develop a fascinating density inversion: a heavier layer of granulate supported by a lower-density region. We employ the Navier-Stokes granular hydrodynamics to follow a…

We show that the contact dynamics obtained from the Herglotz variational principle can be described as a constrained nonholonomic or vakonomic ordinary Lagrangian system depending on a dissipative variable with an adequate choice of one…
