Generalization of Gibbs Entropy and Thermodynamic Relation

Statistical Mechanics 2025-12-23 v16

Abstract

In this paper, we extend Gibbs's approach of quasi-equilibrium thermodynamic processes, and calculate the microscopic expression of entropy for general non-equilibrium thermodynamic processes. Also, we analyze the formal structure of thermodynamic relation in non-equilibrium thermodynamic processes.
