Well, friction is related to generating entropy, so you could add some extra degrees of freedom that represent entropy. You could then pretend that you do not know exactly the state of these extra degrees of freedom, you just know the average energy. You could study how the energy is initially primarily in some "macroscopic" degrees of freedom, but then over time transfers that to the microscopic degrees of freedom.
