Thermodynamics of the viscous fluid from an observer's viewpoint

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2013
The development of the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of the viscous fluid not using the local thermodynamic equilibrium hypothesis is considered. The theory is based on the causal mechanics of the heat conducting continuum, which includes the 1st law of

A Schroedinger link between non-equilibrium thermodynamics and Fisher information

open access: yes, 2002
It is known that equilibrium thermodynamics can be deduced from a constrained Fisher information extemizing process. We show here that, more generally, both non-equilibrium and equilibrium thermodynamics can be obtained from such a Fisher treatment ...

Braun-Le Chatelier principle in dissipative thermodynamics

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2019
Braun-Le Chatelier principle is a fundamental result of equilibrium thermodynamics, showing how stable equilibrium states shift when external conditions are varied. The principle follows from convexity of a thermodynamic potential.

Quasi-Homogeneous Thermodynamics and Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesJ.Math.Phys. 44 (2003) 1089-1128, 2002
We propose a generalized thermodynamics in which quasi-homogeneity of the thermodynamic potentials plays a fundamental role. This thermodynamic formalism arises from a generalization of the approach presented in paper [1], and it is based on the requirement that quasi-homogeneity is a non-trivial symmetry for the Pfaffian form $\delta Q_{rev}$.

Entropy Principle and Recent Results in Non-Equilibrium Theories

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
We present the state of the art on the modern mathematical methods of exploiting the entropy principle in thermomechanics of continuous media. A survey of recent results and conceptual discussions of this topic in some well-known non-equilibrium theories

Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics of Spacetime

open access: yes, 2006
It has previously been shown that the Einstein equation can be derived from the requirement that the Clausius relation dS = dQ/T hold for all local acceleration horizons through each spacetime point, where dS is one quarter the horizon area change in ...

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics beyond linearity: sliding friction

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2019
Nevertheless, sliding friction is frequent and it was the first irreversible process we were faced in the school, very rare effort has been aimed to develop its non-equilibrium thermodynamic theory if ever. The reason may be guessed as Coulomb’s (Amonton’

Towards Control by Interconnection of Port-Thermodynamic Systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The power conserving interconnection of port-thermodynamic systems via their power ports results in another port-thermodynamic system, while the same holds for the rate of entropy increasing interconnection via their entropy flow ports. Control by interconnection of port-thermodynamic systems seeks to control a plant port-thermodynamic system by the ...

Contact Symmetries and Hamiltonian Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Physics 361, 377-400 (2015), 2014
It has been shown that contact geometry is the proper framework underlying classical thermodynamics and that thermodynamic fluctuations are captured by an additional metric structure related to Fisher's Information Matrix. In this work we analyze several unaddressed aspects about the application of contact and metric geometry to thermodynamics.

Dissipation in non-equilibrium spacetime thermodynamics

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2010
It has been recently realized [1, 2] that the thermodynamical derivation of the Einstein equation introduced by Jacobson [3] needs a generalization to a non-equilibrium thermodynamical setting. Here we show that the non-equilibrium character of spacetime thermodynamics – both in GR as well as in f(R) gravity – is generally related to non-local heat ...
