A new type of dissipation function which does not satisfy the Lipschitz condition at equilibrium states is proposed. It is shown that Newtonian dynamics supplemented by this dissipation function becomes irreversible, i.e., it is not invariant with respect to time inversion. Some effects associated with the approaching of equilibria in infinite time are eliminated. New meanings of chaos and turbulence are discussed. 7 refs.
