Local non-equilibrium thermodynamics. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2015 Local Shannon entropy lies at the heart of modern thermodynamics, with much discussion of trajectory-dependent entropy production. When taken at both boundaries of a process in phase space, it reproduces the second law of thermodynamics over a finite ...

Mesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics
Atti 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 ...

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.

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 In a relativistic context, the main purpose of Extended Irreversible Thermodynamics (EIT) is to generalize the principles of non-equilibrium thermodynamics to the domain of fluid dynamics.

Entropy Production: Its Role in Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2011 It is unquestionable that the concept of entropy has played an essential role both in the physical and biological sciences. However, the entropy production, crucial to the second law, has also other features not clearly conceived.

Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics and Fluctuations [PDF]
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2003 In the last ten years, a number of ``Conventional Fluctuation Theorems'' have been derived for systems with deterministic or stochastic dynamics, in a transient or in a non-equilibrium stationary state.

Thermodynamics for non-equilibrium pattern formation
AIP Advances, 2011 The second entropy theory for non-equilibrium thermodynamics is used to show that the optimum structure or pattern of a time-dependent system corresponds to the maximum entropy. A formula for the total entropy of convective heat flow is derived.

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics as gauge fixing [PDF]
Progress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, 2018 By considering a thermodynamic force as gauge field, we extend constitutive equations of Onsager's non-equilibrium thermodynamics to non-linear equations.

Extreme Fisher Information, Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics and Reciprocity Relations [PDF]
Entropy, 2011 In employing MaxEnt, a crucial role is assigned to the reciprocity relations that relate the quantifier to be extremized (Shannon’s entropy S), the Lagrange multipliers that arise during the variational process, and the expectation values that constitute

Non-convex dissipation potentials in multiscale non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]
, 2018 Reformulating constitutive relation in terms of gradient dynamics (being derivative of a dissipation potential) brings additional information on stability, metastability and instability of the dynamics with respect to perturbations of the constitutive ...
