Extended irreversible thermodynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a theory which goes beyond the classical formulation of thermodynamics by enlarging the space of basic independent variables, through the introduction of non-equilibrium variables, such as the dissipative fluxes appearing in the balance equations.

Temperature in non-equilibrium states: a review of open problems and current proposals

TL;DR: In this paper, the conceptual problems arising in the definition and measurement of temperature in non-equilibrium states are discussed in situations where the local equilibrium hypothesis is no longer satisfactory, and a wide review of proposals is offered on effective nonequilibrium temperatures and their application to ideal and real gases, electromagnetic radiation, nuclear collisions, granular systems, glasses, sheared fluids, amorphous semiconductors and turbulent fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended irreversible thermodynamics revisited (1988-98)

TL;DR: In this paper, the progress made in extended irreversible thermodynamics during the ten years that have elapsed since the publication of the first review on the same subject is reviewed and compared with other non-equilibrium thermodynamic theories.
