Structure-dependent analysis of energy dissipation in gas-solid flows: Beyond nonequilibrium thermodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended this structure-dependent analysis to the extremum behavior of dissipation processes, revealing that the solution based on the minimum energy dissipation rate applies only to homogeneous, dilute flow states, but fails in the particle-fluid compromising fluidization regime, in particular, fails to predict choking transition.

Physical Aging in Glasses and Composites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the fundamentals of aging of glasses by considering first structural recovery, the kinetics of the thermodynamic-type variables such as volume or enthalpy, and its impact on the mechanical response, which is the physical aging.

On the Generalized Debye Equation for Media with Dielectric Relaxation Phenomena Described by Vectorial Internal Thermodynamic Variables

TL;DR: In this article, a relation lineaire fonction du champ electrique, du vecteur polarisation, du gradient de temperature and de leurs derivees par rapport au temps is presented.

Entropy criteria applied to pattern selection in systems with free boundaries

TL;DR: In this paper, Onsager's principle of maximum path probability for isolated systems, which is interpreted as a minimal time correlation function connecting subsystem and baths, identifies the stable steady state at a parametric minimum or maximum in the dissipation rate.

The Maximum Entropy Production Principle and Linear Irreversible Processes

TL;DR: It is shown that Onsager's principle of the least dissipation of energy is equivalent to the maximum entropy production principle and it is argued that this extremum is a maximum rather than a minimum.
