Thermodynamic analysis of modified teleparallel gravity involving higher-order torsion derivative terms

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
The present study is elaborated to investigate the validity of thermodynamical laws in a modified teleparallel gravity based on higher-order derivative terms of torsion scalar.

Emergent second law for non-equilibrium steady states

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Contrary to states of thermal equilibrium, there is no universal characterization of non-equilibrium steady states displaying constant flows of energy and/or matter.

Bringing together two paradigms of non-equilibrium: Fragile versus robust aging in driven glassy systems [PDF]

open access: yes
There are two key paradigms for non-equilibrium dynamics: on the one hand, aging towards an equilibrium state that cannot be reached on reasonable timescales; on the other, external driving that can lead to non-equilibrium steady states. We explore how these two mechanisms interact, by studying the behaviour of trap models, which are paradigmatic ...

Mesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics approach to non-Debye dielectric relaxation

open access: yes, 2010
Mesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics is used to formulate a model describing non-homogeneous and non-Debye dielectric relaxation. The model is presented in terms of a Fokker-Planck equation for the probability distribution of non-interacting polar ...

Active Hydrogen for Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of the active hydrogen (H*) for electrochemical ammonia synthesis with particular attention given to the regulation of H* generation and consumption to suppress the competition of hydrogen evolution reaction and enhance the yield, selectivity, and Faradaic efficiency of ammonia.

Time and thermodynamics extended discussion on “Time & clocks: A thermodynamic approach”

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
In the paper, “Time & clocks: A thermodynamic approach” Lucia and Grisolia describe the connections between the physical nature of time and macroscopic irreversibility in thermodynamics.

Why so many "Schools" of Thermodynamics?

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2008
A classification representing some main branches of phenomenological non-equilibrium thermodynamics is discussed. Differences and similarities of these selected branches are explained.

Thermodynamic and Quantum Thermodynamic Analyses of Brownian Movement [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
Thermodynamic and quantum thermodynamic analyses of Brownian movement of a solvent and a colloid passing through neutral thermodynamic equilibrium states only. It is shown that Brownian motors and E. coli do not represent Brownian movement.

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics in sheared hard-sphere materials

open access: yes, 2012
We combine the shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of amorphous plasticity with Edwards' statistical theory of granular materials to describe shear flow in a disordered system of thermalized hard spheres.

Metastable Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation and Aging Lead to Strong Processing Path Dependence in Mini‐Spidroin Solutions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates have central functions in cells and are also observed during the assembly of biological materials such as silks. For a mini‐spidroin protein, the presence of long‐lived metastable or dynamically arrested intermediate states leads to complex pathways and difficulties in identifying equilibrium states.
