Mechanics and thermodynamics: A link between the two theories

Henri Gouin

In this note, we analyze the relationships that should govern the use of thermodynamics in fluid mechanics in a way that we believe is understandable to mathematicians. We also aim…

Climbing plants -- Wrapping elastic plant stems around a cylindrical stake

Henri Gouin

Since Charles Darwin's time, the study of climbing plants on a cylindrical stake has been the subject of numerous articles in plant biology. One of the main ideas for studying the…

Principle of virtual action in continuum mechanics

Henri Gouin

We present the principle of virtual action as a foundation of continuum mechanics. Used mainly in relativity, the method has a useful application in classical mechanics and places…

Noether theorem in fluid mechanics

Henri Gouin

Invariance theorems in analytical mechanics, such as Noether's theorem, can be adapted to continuum mechanics. For this purpose, it is useful to give a functional representation of…

Remarks on the Lie derivative in fluid mechanics

Henri Gouin

The invariance theorems obtained in analytical mechanics and derived from Noether's theorems can be adapted to fluid mechanics. For this purpose, it is useful to give a functional…

Theoretical model of the Leidenfrost temperature

Sergey Gavrilyuk, Henri Gouin

The Leidenfrost effect is a phenomenon in which a liquid, poured onto a surface significantly hotter than the liquid's boiling point, produces a layer of vapor that prevents the li…
