In this paper we extend the conditions of emph{quasi-thermal-incompressible materials} presented in cite{GMR} such that they satisfy all the principles of thermodynamics including the stability condition associated with the concavity of the chemical potential. We analyze the approximations for which a quasi-thermal-incompressible media can be considered as incompressible. As results the pressure cannot exceed a very large critical value and the compressibility coefficient must be greater than a lower limit which is very small. The analysis is first done in the case of fluids and then extended to the case of thermoelastic solids.

Abstract
In this paper we extend the conditions of emph{quasi-thermal-incompressible materials} presented in cite{GMR} such that they satisfy all the principles of thermodynamics including the stability condition associated with the concavity of the chemical potential. We analyze the approximations for which a quasi-thermal-incompressible media can be considered as incompressible. As results the pressure cannot exceed a very large critical value and the compressibility coefficient must be greater than a lower limit which is very small. The analysis is first done in the case of fluids and then extended to the case of thermoelastic solids.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
