Abstract
In this article, we focus on the formulation of dissipative mechanical systems through contact Hamiltonian systems. Different forms of symmetry of a contact dynamical system (geometric, dynamic, and gage) are defined to, in the realm of Noether, find their corresponding dissipated quantities. We also address the existence of dissipated quantities associated with a general vector field X on \(TQ\times \mathbb {R},\) focusing on the case where its contact Hamiltonian function is dissipative.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
