The stability and causality of the Landau-Lifshitz theory and the Israel-Stewart type causal dissipative hydrodynamics are discussed. We show that the problem of acausality and instability are correlated in relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics and instability is induced by acausality. We further discuss the stability of the scaling solution. The scaling solution of the causal dissipative hydrodynamics can be unstable against inhomogeneous perturbations.

We studied the shock propagation and its stability with the causal dissipative hydrodynamics in 1+1 dimensional systems. We show that the presence of the usual viscosity is not enough to stabilize the solution. This problem is solved by introducing an additional viscosity which is related to the coarse-graining scale of the theory.
Using second--order dissipative hydrodynamics coupled self-consistently to the linear $sigma$ model we study the 2+1 dimensional evolution of the fireball created in Au+Au relativistic collisions. We analyze the influence of the dynamics of the chiral fields on the charged-hadron elliptic flow $v_2$ and on the ratio $v_4/(v_2)^2$ for a temperature-independent as well as for a temperature-dependent viscosity-to-entropy ratio $eta/s$ calculated from the linearized Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation. We find that $v_2$ is not very sensitive to the coupling of chiral sources to the hydrodynamic evolution, but the temperature dependence of $eta/s$ plays a much bigger role on this observable. On the other hand, the ratio $v_4/(v_2)^2$ turns out to be much more sensitive than $v_2$ to both the coupling of the chiral sources and the temperature dependence of $eta/s$.
We propose to model the dissipative hydrodynamics used in description of the multiparticle production processes ($d$-hydrodynamics) by a special kind of the perfect nonextensive fluid ($q$-fluid) where $q$ denotes the nonextensivity parameter appearing in the nonextensive Tsallis statistics. The advantage of $q$-hydrodynamics lies in its formal simplicity in comparison to the $d$-hydrodynamics. We argue that parameter $q$ describes summarily (at least to some extent) all dynamical effects behind the viscous behavior of the hadronic fluid.
We extended our formulation of causal dissipative hydrodynamics [T. Koide textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. textbf{C75}, 034909 (2007)] to be applicable to the ultra-relativistic regime by considering the extensiveness of irreversible currents. The new equation has a non-linear term which suppresses the effect of viscosity. We found that such a term is necessary to guarantee the positive definiteness of the inertia term and stabilize numerical calculations in ultra-relativistic initial conditions. Because of the suppression of the viscosity, the behavior of the fluid is more close to that of the ideal fluid. Our result is essentially same as that from the extended irreversible thermodynamics, but is different from the Israel-Stewart theory. A possible origin of the difference is discussed.
Relativistic hydrodynamics represents a powerful tool to investigate the time evolution of the strongly interacting quark gluon plasma created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The equations are solved often numerically, and numerous analytic solutions also exist. However, the inclusion of viscous effects in exact, analytic solutions has received less attention. Here we utilize Hubble flow to investigate the role of bulk viscosity, and present different classes of exact, analytic solutions valid also in the presence of dissipative effects.
