Influence of the Moment in Mathematical Models for Open Systems

Abstract

Article is proposed, built taking into account the influence of the angular momentum (force) in mathematical models of open mechanics. The speeds of various processes at the time of writing the equations were relatively small compared to modern ones. Theories have generally been developed for closed systems. As a result, in continuum mechanics, the theory developed for potential flows was expanded on flows with significant gradients of physical parameters without taking into account the combined action of force and moment. The paper substantiates the vector definition of pressure and the no symmetry of the stress tensor based on consideration of potential flows and on the basis of kinetic theory. It is proved that for structureless particles the symmetry condition for the stress tensor is one of the possible conditions for closing the system of equations. The influence of the moment is also traced in the formation of fluctuations in a liquid and in a plasma in the study of Brownian motion, Landau damping, and in the formation of nanostructures. The nature of some effects in nanostructures is discussed. The action of the moment leads to three-dimensional effects even for initially flat structures. It is confirmed that the action of the moment of force is the main source of the collective effects observed in nature. Examples of solving problems of the theory of elasticity are given.
