Theory of cross phenomena and their coefficients beyond Onsager theorem

Zi-Kui Liu

Summary: Through the flux equations based on the combined law of thermodynamics, a theory of cross phenomena has been developed and applied to various fields. It is found that the coefficient matrix of cross phenomena exhibits a diagonal structure when the driving forces are chosen appropriately.

Lagrangian descriptions of dissipative systems: a review

Alberto Maria Bersani et al.

Summary: This paper reviews classical and recent results on the Lagrangian description of dissipative systems, focusing on the Helmholtz conditions for the existence of a Lagrangian function for a system of differential equations. The necessary and sufficient conditions are discussed in terms of multiplier factors, exploring the existence of equivalent Lagrangians for the same system. Examples are provided to illustrate the application of the techniques described in the theorems presented in the paper.
