Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics—The Nonequilibrium Perspective

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
An alternative to the Carnot-Clausius approach for introducing entropy and the second law of thermodynamics is outlined that establishes entropy as a nonequilibrium property from the onset.

Mesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2008
Basic concepts like energy, heat, and temperature have acquired a precise meaning after the development of thermodynamics. Thermodynamics provides the basis for understanding how heat and work are related and with the general rules that the macroscopic ...

Kinetic equilibrium and relativistic thermodynamics

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
Relativistic thermodynamics is treated from the point of view of kinetic theory. It is shown that the generalized Jüttner distribution suggested in [1] is compatible with kinetic equilibrium.

On Thermodynamics Problems in the Single-Phase-Lagging Heat Conduction Model

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
Thermodynamics problems for the single-phase-lagging (SPL) model have not been much studied. In this paper, the violation of the second law of thermodynamics by the SPL model is studied from two perspectives, which are the negative entropy production ...

Multiscale Thermodynamics

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Multiscale thermodynamics is a theory of the relations among the levels of investigation of complex systems. It includes the classical equilibrium thermodynamics as a special case, but it is applicable to both static and time evolving processes in ...

The Maximum Entropy Production Principle: Its Theoretical Foundations and Applications to the Earth System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) principle has been remarkably successful in producing accurate predictions for non-equilibrium states. We argue that this is because the MEP principle is an effective inference procedure that produces the best ...

Recovering phytochemicals from a brewery by-product: a sustainable reuse proposal using a lactic acid-based deep eutectic solvent [PDF]

open access: yesSustainable Food Technology
Hot trub (HT), a nutrient-rich by-product of beer production, remains underutilized despite its potential for resource recovery. This study explores the valorization of HT, producing two phytochemical-rich extracts with potential functional applications ...

Onsager's Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics as Gradient Flow in Information Geometry. [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy (Basel)
We consider Onsager’s non-equilibrium thermodynamics from the perspective of the gradient flow in information geometry. Assuming Onsager’s reciprocal relations, we can regard his phenomenological equations as gradient-flow equations and ...

Time in Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It is often claimed, or hoped, that some temporal asymmetries are explained by the thermodynamic asymmetry in time. Thermodynamics, the macroscopic physics of pressure, temperature, volume, and so on, describes many temporally asymmetric processes.

Modeling the transformation of І and ІІІ types kerogen by the method of entropy maximization

open access: yesВісник Харківського національного університету імені В.Н. Каразіна. Серія Геологія. Географія. Екологія, 2021
Purpose, methods and research methodology. The aim of the work is to calculate and compare the trends of transformation of organic matter of I-A and III-A type kerogen, which is in contact with organic and inorganic gases in the process of immersion of ...
