Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics and Scale Invariance
A variant of continuous nonequilibrium thermodynamic theory based on the postulate of the scale invariance of the local relation between generalized fluxes and forces is proposed here. This single postulate replaces the assumptions on local equilibrium and on the known relation between thermodynamic fluxes and forces, which are widely used in classical nonequilibrium thermodynamics. It is shown...
متن کاملGauge invariance and geometric phase in nonequilibrium thermodynamics.
We show the link between U(1) lattice gauge theories and the off-equilibrium thermodynamics of a large class of nonlinear oscillators networks. The coupling between the oscillators plays the role of a gauge field, or connection, on the network. The thermodynamical forces that drive energy flows are expressed in terms of the curvature of the connection, analogous to a geometric phase. The model,...
متن کاملStochastic resonance and scale invariance in nonequilibrium metastable states
Using computer simulations, we study metastability in a two-dimensional Ising ferromagnet relaxing toward a nonequilibrium steady state. The interplay between thermal and nonequilibrium fluctuations induces resonant and scale-invariant phenomena not observed in equilibrium. In particular, we measure noise-enhanced stability of the metastable state in a nonequilibrium environment. The limit of m...
متن کاملNonequilibrium thermodynamics and glassy rheology
Mechanically driven glassy systems and complex fluids exhibit a wealth of rheological behaviors that call for theoretical understanding and predictive modeling. A distinct feature of these nonequilibrium systems is their dynamically evolving state of structural disorder, which determines their rheological responses. Here we highlight a recently developed nonequilibrium thermodynamic framework i...
متن کاملNonequilibrium thermodynamics of spacetime.
It has previously been shown that the Einstein equation can be derived from the requirement that the Clausius relation dS=deltaQ/T hold for all local acceleration horizons through each spacetime point, where is one-quarter the horizon area change in Planck units and deltaQ and T are the energy flux across the horizon and the Unruh temperature seen by an accelerating observer just inside the hor...
