Dissipative decomposition of ordinary differential equations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2011
Synopsis
A general decomposition theorem that allows one to express uniquely arbitrary differential polynomials in one independent and one dependent variable as a combination of conservative, dissipative and higher order dissipative pieces is proved. The decomposition generalises the Rayleigh dissipation law for linear equations.
