Relative Energy Dissipation: Sensitive to Structural Changes of Liquids

Energy dissipation techniques, widely used in solid physics previously, are proved to be sensitive also to changes in liquid structure. It has been suggested from relative energy dissipation that changes in liquid structure can occur as a function of temperature in some ordinary binary systems such as Pb-Sn, In-Sn and In-Bi. This finding may be helpful to understand liquid structure changing patterns, therefore enriches the phenomenology of liquid state physics. This is significant for engineering practice.
