NONEQUILIBRIUM THERMODYNAMICS: A POWER FUL TOOL FOR SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS

open access: yesDyna, 2012
We present the two-generator framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics with a strong emphasis on fundamental notions rather than mathematical details.

Intrinsic Phonons as a Dynamic Control Knob for Catalytic Reactivity in 2D Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Intrinsic phonon excitations are demonstrated to serve as a dynamic control knob for catalytic reactivity in 2D materials. Mode‐selective lattice vibrations reconstruct the electronic structure, lower oxygen evolution reaction barriers, establishing a phonon‐engineering paradigm for dynamically regulating electrocatalysis beyond conventional static ...

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics – A Tool for Applied Rheologists

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 1999
GENERIC is reviewed not only as a new general framework for modeling nonequilibrium systems, but also as a new way of thinking about nonequilibrium dynamics.

Advancing Energy Materials by In Situ Atomic Scale Methods

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
Progress in in situ atomic scale methods leads to an improved understanding of new and advanced energy materials, where a local understanding of complex, inhomogeneous systems or interfaces down to the atomic scale and quantum level is required. Topics from photovoltaics, dissipation losses, phase transitions, and chemical energy conversion are ...

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics in Biology: From Molecular Motors to Metabolic Pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Biological systems need to exchange energy and matter with their environment in order to stay functional or “alive”. This exchange has to obey the laws of thermodynamics: energy cannot be created and exchange comes at the cost of dissipation, which ...

From Materials to Systems: Challenges and Solutions for Fast‐Charge/Discharge Na‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review systematically analyzes the key characteristics limiting the fast‐charge/discharge capability of Na‐ion batteries (SIBs) from a multi‐scale perspective encompassing electrode materials, the electrode‐electrolyte interface, and the system. Furthermore, it presents practical solution strategies for the fundamental issues arising at each scale,

Thermodynamics in f(T) Gravity with Nonminimal Coupling to Matter

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, 2017
In the present paper, we study the thermodynamics behavior of the field equations for the generalized f(T) gravity with arbitrary coupling between matter and the torsion scalar.

Active Brownian heat engines

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
When do nonequilibrium forms of disordered energy qualify as heat? We address this question in the context of cyclically operating heat engines feeding on nonequilibrium energy reservoirs that defy the zeroth law of thermodynamics into work.

A Kinetic–Energetic Bottleneck of Charge‐Transfer Injection Governs Energy Loss in Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Kinetic–energetic projection of time‐resolved photoluminescence reveals that charge‐transfer injection acts as a universal bottleneck in organic solar cells. A physics‐constrained Bayesian framework identifies an emergent effective CT injection rate governing the trade‐off between charge generation and nonradiative energy loss.
