Hamilton's Principle and Energy Profitability

Abstract— The kinetics of the interface between metals under contact and external influences (triboloading, rolling, physical and chemical effects of the environment, etc.) has been investigated. It is shown that the kinetics of the evolution of the structure of materials proceeds in accordance with the minimum production of entropy and maximum destruction. The conditions for obtaining a special nonequilibrium state of the crystal lattice of nickel under triboloading are determined. The main regularities of the kinetics of structural transformations, structural-scale levels of deformation and the properties of the interface between metals during contact and external interaction have been determined.
