Abstract
Dynamical systems with position varying mass are archetypal examples of classical mechanical systems with rocket engine being a typical realistic model. In the present study, we extend the classical Newtonian mechanics by replacing the kinetic energy by a nonlocal-in-time kinetic energy and the standard velocity by a fractional velocity. These replacements lead to an extension of Newton’s second law of motion which has interesting implications in incompressible fluid dynamics. As an application, we discuss the rotating fluid problem subject to a position varying fluid mass which occurs in rocket dynamics. Several features were observed, mainly the transition from order to disorder in rotating fluids in rockets.
