Some Thoughts on Frame Indifference
Source abstract
Abstract
Frame indifference is intimately related to the idealization, in conventional continuum mechanics, of the surface on which the surface forces act as a two-dimensional continuum devoid of mass. In the kinetic theory of gases, the surface is effectively a layer with thickness of the order of magnitude of the mean free path. The calculated pressure matrix contains a frame dependent term that represents the Coriolis forces that emerge in this layer when the applied forces are transformed from a fixed to a rotating reference frame.
