Many thermodynamic relations involve inequalities, with equality if a process does not involve dissipation. In this article we provide equalities in which the dissipative contribution is shown to involve the relative entropy (a.k.a.…
Laminar electrically conducting Couette flows with the hydrodynamically stable quasi-Keplerian rotation profile and non-uniform conductivity are probed for dynamo instability. In spherical geometry the equations for the poloidal and the…
In this Letter we show that the time reversal asymmetry of a stationary time series provides information about the entropy production of the physical mechanism generating the series, even if one ignores any detail of that mechanism. We…

We consider a system of multiple insulating rigid bodies moving inside of an electrically conducting compressible fluid. In this system we take into account the interaction of the fluid with the bodies as well as with the electromagnetic…
Nonequilibria show currents that are maintained as the result of a steady driving. We ask here what decides their direction. It is not only the second law, or the positivity of the entropy production that decides; also non-dissipative…
We analyze the possible quantum correlations between two coupled dimer systems in the presence of independent losses and driven by a fluctuating field. For the case of the interaction being of a Heisenberg exchange type, we first…
Some microscopic dynamics are also macroscopically irreversible, dissipating energy and producing entropy. For many-particle systems interacting with deterministic thermostats, the rate of thermodynamic entropy dissipated to the environment…
We consider an immiscible two-phase flow in a heterogeneous one-dimensional porous medium. We suppose particularly that the capillary pressure field is discontinuous with respect to the space variable. The dependence of the capillary…
In this work the issue of whether key energetic properties (nonlinear, exponential-type dissipation in the abscence of forcing and long-term stability under conditions of time dependent loading) are automatically inherited by deforming…
We investigate the phase structure and conductivity of a relativistic fluid in a circulating electric field with a transverse magnetic field. This system exhibits behavior similar to other driven systems such as strongly coupled driven CFTs…
We consider viscous, heat conducting mixtures of molecularly miscible chemical species forming a fluid in which the constituents can undergo chemical reactions. Assuming a common temperature for all components, we derive a closed system of…
We extend Onsager's minimum dissipation principle to stationary states that are only subject to local equilibrium constraints, even when the transport coefficients depend on the thermodynamic forces. Crucial to this generalization is a…
The following note shows that the symmetry of various resistance formulae, often based on Lorentz reciprocity for linearly viscous fluids, applies to a wide class of non-linear viscoplastic fluids. This follows from Edelen's non-linear…
This paper reports a relation between ionic conductivity and electric current fluctuations. The relation was derived using statistical analysis and entropy approach. The relation can be used to calculate ionic conductivity.
Flow networks can describe many natural and artificial systems. We present a model for a flow system that allows for volume accumulation, includes conduits with a non-linear relation between current and pressure difference, and can be…
We investigate a Poisson-Nernst-Planck type system in three spatial dimensions where the strength of the electric drift depends on a possibly small parameter and the particles are assumed to diffuse quadratically. On grounds of the global…
