Out-of-equilibrium thermodynamics of quantum optomechanical systems [PDF]
, 2015 We address the out-of-equilibrium thermodynamics of an isolated quantum system consisting of a cavity optomechanical device. We explore the dynamical response of the system when driven out of equilibrium by a sudden quench of the coupling parameter and ...

, 2014 By suitable reformulations, we cast the mathematical frameworks of several well-known different approaches to the description of non-equilibrium dynamics into a unified formulation, which extends to such frameworks the concept of Steepest Entropy Ascent (

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of harmonically trapped bosons [PDF]
New Journal of Physics, 2016 We apply the framework of non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics to the physics of quenched small-sized bosonic quantum gases in a one-dimensional harmonic trap.

Towards Pragmatist Thermodynamics: An Essay on the Natural Philosophy of Entropy and Sustainability [PDF]
EntropyClassical thermodynamics (CT) has become integrated into everyday life, especially through its applications in engineering. In contrast, out-of-equilibrium thermodynamics (OET) is often viewed as a fundamental science that seems distant from daily ...

A non-equilibrium thermodynamics model for combined adsorption and diffusion processes in micro- and nanopores [PDF]
, 2012 A non-equilibrium thermodynamics model able to analyze the combined effect of diffusion and adsorption in porous materials is proposed. The model considers the coupled dynamics of the diffusive phase, described by a diffusion type equation, and the ...

Systems, variational principles and interconnections in non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2023 The paper investigates a systematic approach to modelling in non-equilibrium thermodynamics by focusing upon the notion of interconnections, where we propose a novel Lagrangian variational formulation of such interconnected systems by extending the ...

Contact topology and non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]
Nonlinearity, 2021 We describe a method, based on contact topology, of showing the existence of semi-infinite trajectories of contact Hamiltonian flows which start on one Legendrian submanifold and asymptotically converge to another Legendrian submanifold.

Toward the Relational Formulation of Biological Thermodynamics
Entropy, 2023 Classical thermodynamics employs the state of thermodynamic equilibrium, characterized by maximal disorder of the constituent particles, as the reference frame from which the Second Law is formulated and the definition of entropy is derived.
