In this study, we theoretically investigated a generalized stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) driven by reversible Langevin dynamics in the context of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics.

Local equilibrium and the second law of thermodynamics for irreversible systems with thermodynamic inertia [PDF]
Validity of local equilibrium has been questioned for non-equilibrium systems which are characterized by delayed response. In particular, for systems with non-zero thermodynamic inertia, the assumption of local equilibrium leads to negative values of the

The paper discusses how the two thermodynamic properties, energy (U) and exergy (E), can be used to solve the problem of quantifying the entropy of non-equilibrium systems.

Exergy Dynamics of Systems in Thermal or Concentration Non-Equilibrium
The paper addresses the problem of the existence and quantification of the exergy of non-equilibrium systems. Assuming that both energy and exergy are a priori concepts, the Gibbs “available energy” A is calculated for arbitrary temperature or ...

Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics and Topology of Currents [PDF]
In many experimental situations, a physical system undergoes stochastic evolution which may be described via random maps between two compact spaces. In the current work, we study the applicability of large deviations theory to time-averaged quantities which describe such stochastic maps, in particular time-averaged currents and density functionals.

The Second Law Today: Using Maximum-Minimum Entropy Generation
There are a great number of thermodynamic schools, independent of each other, and without a powerful general approach, but with a split on non-equilibrium thermodynamics. In 1912, in relation to the stationary non-equilibrium states, Ehrenfest introduced

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of concentration polarization [PDF]
Ultrafiltration is a membrane separation process with many applications, including the treatment of industrial wastes and the processing of milk and juices. Academics are also interested in ultrafiltration as a possible tool for measuring empirical coefficients such as the diffusion coefficient and the permeability.

On universal features of the turbulent cascade in terms of non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]
Features of the turbulent cascade are investigated for various datasets from three different turbulent flows, namely free jets as well as wake flows of a regular grid and a cylinder.
