Abstract

In a steady state of fluid the nonlinear dependence of stress tensor on a thermal driving force is investigated by a direct extension of the mode-coupling theory to far-from-equilibrium situation. The steady state is generated from a local equilibrium state having the same average values of gross variables as in the steady state. In the lowest approximation for the mode-coupling term ·the explicit expression of the stress tensor is obtained and evaluated. The effects of the higher mode-coupling approximations on the stress tensor are also briefly examined.
