On the Problem of Formulating Principles in Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2010 In this work, we consider the choice of a system suitable for the formulation of principles in nonequilibrium thermodynamics. It is argued that an isolated system is a much better candidate than a system in contact with a bath. In other words, relaxation

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of an interface. [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2016 Interfacial thermodynamics has deep ramifications in understanding the boundary conditions of transport theories. We present a formulation of local equilibrium for interfaces that extends the thermodynamics of the "dividing surface," as introduced by ...

Physicochemical Mechanics and Nonequilibrium Chemical Thermodynamics
Entropy, 2023 Equilibrium thermodynamics answers the question, “by how much?” Nonequilibrium thermodynamics answers the question “how fast?” The physicochemical mechanics approach presented in this article answers both of these questions.

Covariant nonequilibrium thermodynamics from Ito-Langevin dynamics
Physical Review Research, 2022 Using the recently developed covariant Ito-Langevin dynamics, we develop a nonequilibrium thermodynamic theory for small systems coupled to multiplicative noises.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of glasses.
Physical Review E, 2006 We consider the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of glasses from various perspectives. For the commonly used equilibriumlike approach based on Gibbs' fundamental form with an additional pair of conjugate variables, we discuss possible choices of the ...

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Ion Flux through Membrane Channels
Entropy, 2017 Ion flux through membrane channels is passively driven by the electrochemical potential differences across the cell membrane. Nonequilibrium thermodynamics has been successful in explaining transport mechanisms, including the ion transport phenomenon ...

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics: emergent and fundamental. [PDF]
Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2020 How can we derive the evolution equations of dissipative systems? What is the relation between the different approaches? How much do we understand the fundamental aspects of a second law based framework? Is there a hierarchy of dissipative and ideal theories at all? How far can we reach with the new methods of nonequilibrium thermodynamics?

Variational principles and nonequilibrium thermodynamics. [PDF]
Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2020 Variational principles play a fundamental role in deriving the evolution equations of physics. They work well in the case of non-dissipative evolution, but for dissipative systems, the variational principles are not unique and not constructive. With the methods of modern nonequilibrium thermodynamics, one can derive evolution equations for dissipative ...

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics and phase transition of Ehrenfest urns with interactions
Physical Review Research, 2021 Ehrenfest urns with interaction that are connected in a ring is considered as a paradigm model for nonequilibrium thermodynamics and is shown to exhibit two distinct nonequilibrium steady states (NESS) of uniform and nonuniform particle distributions. As
