Lagrangian-Hamiltonian formalism for cocontact systems
(Journal of Geometric Mechanics, 2023)In this paper we present a unified Lagrangian–Hamiltonian geometric formalism to describe time-dependent contact mechanical systems, based on the one first introduced by K. Kamimura and later formalized by R. Skinner and ... -
Multicontact formulation for non-conservative field theories
(Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2023)A new geometric structure inspired by multisymplectic and contact geometries, which we call multicontact structure, is developed to describe non-conservative classical field theories. Using the differential forms that ... -
Time-dependent contact mechanics
(Monatshefte fur Mathematik, 2023)Contact geometry allows us to describe some thermodynamic and dissipative systems. In this paper we introduce a new geometric structure in order to describe time-dependent contact systems: cocontact manifolds. Within this ...
