dissipationeffects
Dissipation effects refer to processes by which energy in a physical system is irreversibly lost to its surroundings, typically as heat, radiation, or other forms of energy transfer. These effects cause damping of motion, attenuation of waves, or loss of coherence in quantum systems, and are contrasted with idealized, lossless dynamics.
In classical mechanics, dissipation is often represented by a damping force such as F_d = -b v in
In fluid dynamics, viscous dissipation converts kinetic energy into heat at a rate that depends on viscosity
In quantum physics, dissipation arises when a system exchanges energy with an environment. Open quantum system
Implications of dissipation include irreversibility, entropy production, and heating, which can limit performance but also enable
