A Variational Formulation of Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics for Discrete Open Systems with Mass and Heat Transfer. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2018 We propose a variational formulation for the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of discrete open systems, i.e., discrete systems which can exchange mass and heat with the exterior.

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

Arbitrary nonequilibrium steady-state construction with a levitated nanoparticle
Physical Review Research, 2023 Nonequilibrium thermodynamics provides a general framework for understanding nonequilibrium processes, particularly in small systems that are typically far from equilibrium and dominated by fluctuations.

Experimental characterization of autonomous heat engine based on minimal dynamical-system model
Physical Review Research, 2020 The autonomous heat engine is a model system of autonomous nonequilibrium systems, exploiting nonequilibrium flow for operations. As the Carnot engine has essentially contributed to the equilibrium thermodynamics, an autonomous heat engine is expected to

Improvement of Error Correction in Nonequilibrium Information Dynamics
Entropy, 2023 Errors are inevitable in information processing and transfer. While error correction is widely studied in engineering, the underlying physics is not fully understood.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of feedback control [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2012 We establish a general theory of feedback control on classical stochastic thermodynamic systems, and generalize nonequilibrium equalities such as the fluctuation theorem and the Jarzynski equality in the presence of feedback control with multiple measurements. Our results are generalizations of the previous relevant works to the situations with general

Chemical thermodynamics for growing systems
Physical Review Research, 2022 We consider growing open chemical reaction systems (CRSs), in which autocatalytic chemical reactions are encapsulated in a finite volume and its size can change in conjunction with the reactions.

The steady state fluctuation relation for the dissipation function [PDF]
, 2007 We give a proof of transient fluctuation relations for the entropy production (dissipation function) in nonequilibrium systems, which is valid for most time reversible dynamics. We then consider the conditions under which a transient fluctuation relation
