Rheological modeling with GENERIC and with the Onsager principle
Miroslav Grmela
In this paper we compare three frameworks for modeling flows of complex fluids: (i) local conservations of mass, momentum and energy, (ii) GENERIC, and (iii) Onsager principle. The…

Landau Theory of Dynamic Critical Phenomena in the Rayleigh-Benard System
Miroslav Grmela
Physics involving more details than hydrodynamics is needed to formulate rate thermodynamics of the Rayleigh-Bénard system. The Boussinesq vector field is approached in the space…

Roles of Energy and Entropy in Multiscale Dynamics and Thermodynamics
Miroslav Grmela
Multiscale thermodynamics is a theory of relations among levels of description. Energy and entropy are its two main ingredients. Their roles in the time evolution describing approa…
