Conduction-only transport phenomena in compressible bivelocity fluids: Diffuse interfaces and Korteweg stresses

“Diffuse interface” theories for single-component fluids—dating back to van der Waals, Korteweg, Cahn-Hilliard, and many others—are currently based upon an ad hoc combination of thermodynamic principles (built largely upon Helmholtz's free-energy potential) and so-called “nonclassical” continuu...
