The response of the anisotropic stress at the liquid water vapor interface to a finite electric suggests that the surface potential of water can be seen as an electro-capillary effect coupled to the Maxwell stress tensor.

Vdw Force

Lifshitz theory of van der Waals (vdW) force and energy is strictly valid when the location at which the stress tensor is calculated is in vacuum. Generalization of Lifshitz theory to the case when the stress tensor is to be calculated in a dissipative material, as opposed to vacuum, is a surprisingly difficult undertaking because there is no expression for the electromagnetic stress tensor in dissipative materials. Here, we derive the expression for vdW force in planar dissipative media by calculating the Maxwell stress tensor in a fictious layer of vacuum, that is eventually made to vanish, introduced in the structure, without employing the complicated quantum field theoretic method proposed by Dzyaloshinskii, Lifshitz, and Pitaevskii. Even though this work has proven to be a corroboration of Dzyaloshinskii et al., it has thrown new light on our understanding of vdW forces and suggests that it should be possible to achieve the similar result for objects with arbitrary shapes.

Electrorheological Suspensions

A numerical scheme based on the distributed Lagrange multiplier method (DLM) is used to study the motion of particles of a dielectric suspensions subjected to uniform and nonuniform electric fields. The Maxwell stress tensor method is used for computing electrostatic forces. In the point dipole approximation the total electrostatic force acting on a particle can be divided into two distinct contributions, one due to dielectrophoresis and the second due to particle-particle interactions. The former is zero when the applied electric field is uniform and the latter depends on the distance between the particles. In the Maxwell stress tensor approach these two contribution appear together. Simulations show that as expected the error in the point dipole approximation decreases, as the distance between the particles increases.

Radial Forces

This paper consists of modeling and analysis of the axial and radial forces as well as axial and tilt stiffness between a magnetic track and a ferromagnetic backing. The proposed model utilizes the concept of Maxwell stress tensor and simplified reluctance models in order to predict the magnetic interactions between the rotor and the stator. In other to verify the model developed, finite element models and experiments are performed for the case of a linear magnetic track. The results can be applied to the case of rotary tracks without loss of generality. Applications of this work can be used in the design of magnetic bearings or servo motors with ferromagnetic stators.

Split Octonions

Starting with the usual definitions of octonions and split octonions in terms of Zorn vector matrix realization, we have made an attempt to write the continuity equation and other wave equations of dyons in split octonions. Accordingly, we have investigated the work energy theorem or "Poynting Theorem," Maxwell stress tensor and Lorentz invariant for generalized fields of dyons in split octonion electrodynamics. Our theory of dyons in split octonion formulations is discussed in term of simple and compact notations. This theory reproduces the dynamic of electric (magnetic) in the absence of magnetic (electric) charges.
