Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: possible, 2012
We first review the principles of Classical Thermodynamics (see also Appendix D), and proceed to give an alternative formulation of Thermodynamics in the context of a true dynamical process.

Non-Linear Stability and Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics—There and Back Again

Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics, 2022
We discuss the role of thermodynamics in non-linear stability analysis of spatially distributed dissipative systems governed by non-linear partial differential equations.

Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics

, 2017
Biological systems are far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Concentration gradients and electrostatic potential differences are the driving forces for diffusive currents and chemical reactions. In this chapter, we present the basic ingredients of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. We derive continuity equations for mass and energy.

Transient cold-front-water through y-shaped aluminium ducts: nature of turbulence, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and velocity at the converged and diverged outlets

Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
The interaction between water motion efficiency, outlet control mechanisms, and energy dynamics management hinges significantly on turbulence characteristics.

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of light absorption

Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 1999
Summary: Free-energy transduction, the basic physical process underlying the phenomena of life has been described by non-equilibrium thermodynamics. However, the possibility of a thermodynamic description of the very first step, the conversion of solar energy to the free energy of the living material, has been questioned on the basis of an apparent ...

Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics

1994
After having devoted five chapters of this book to the discussion of equilibrium thermodynamics and conservative dynamic phenomena, it is now high time that we entered into the realm of irreversible transport processes. As mentioned in chapter 1, most of the physical systems which engineers wish to model exhibit dissipative phenomena.

Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics

2011
Complex structures such as the cellular building blocks of living things are not at equilibrium in the traditional thermodynamic meaning of the term. They are stable only in the sense that they can continually feed off energy sources supplied by electromagnetic field, chemical, thermal and pressure gradients. Thermodynamically, life has to be viewed as
