Arguably, almost all truly intriguing systems are ones that are far away from equilibrium -- such as stars, planetary atmospheres, and even digital circuits. But, until now, systems far from thermal ...
High performance materials for gas storage, thermal insulators or nanomachines need a thorough understanding of the behavior of the material down to the molecular level. Thermodynamics, which have ...
THERMODYNAMICS is one of the most successful theories of matter ever constructed. There are no known violations of the theory for the description of macroscopic systems for which it was devised. But ...
Entropy production lies at the heart of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, a field that examines systems away from equilibrium where continuous energy flows and irreversible processes dominate. In such ...
Philosophical Transactions: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, Vol. 370, No. 1962, Climate predictions: the influence of nonlinearity and randomness (13 March 2012), pp. 1012-1040 (29 ...
Although most natural and synthetic processes prefer to settle into equilibrium—a state of unchanging balance without potential or energy—it is within the realm of non-equilibrium conditions where new ...
The Japanese collaborative team of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) and Osaka University presents a novel method for tuning hydrodynamic interfacial instability through a ...
At this event, we will be giving two awards: the Ruth Lynden-Bell prize for best PhD thesis to Dr Emanuele Penocchio. the Early Career prize to Dr Sarah Loos. This "Non-equilibrium thermodynamics” ...
