Heat and thermal travelling wave solutions of a nonlinear Maxwell-Cattaneo-Vernotte equation
Munafò Carmelo Filippo, Rogolino Patrizia, Sciacca Michele
The propagation of heat and thermal signals in the form of travelling waves is investigated for a nonlinear Maxwell-Cattaneo-Vernotte equation. The exact wave solutions are derived…
Two-dimensional equilibrium configurations in Korteweg fluids
M. Gorgone, F. Oliveri, A. Ricciardello +1
In this paper, after reviewing the form of the constitutive equations for a third grade Korteweg fluid, recently derived by means of an extended Liu procedure, an equilibrium probl…
The Role of Second Law of Thermodynamics in Continuum Physics: A Muschik and Ehrentraut Theorem Revisited
V. A. Cimmelli, P. Rogolino
Second law of thermodynamics imposes that in any thermodynamic process the entropy production must be nonnegative. In continuum physics such a requirement is fulfilled by postulati…
A thermodynamical description of third grade fluid mixtures
Matteo Gorgone, Patrizia Rogolino
A complete thermodynamical analysis for a non-reacting binary mixture exhibiting the features of a third grade fluid is analyzed. The constitutive functions are allowed to depend o…
Continua with non-local constitutive laws: exploitation of entropy inequality
Matteo Gorgone, Francesco Oliveri, Patrizia Rogolino
In this paper, we consider a system of balance laws sufficiently general to contain the equations describing the thermomechanics of a one-dimensional continuum; this system involve…
