In this paper, we discuss some well-known experimental observations on self-organization
in dissipative systems. The examples range from pure fluid flow, pattern selection in fluid …

Nonequilibrium temperature is a topic of research with continuously growing interest
because of recent improvements in and applications of nonequilibrium thermodynamics …

An approach that extends equilibrium thermodynamics principles to out-of-equilibrium
systems is based on the local equilibrium hypothesis. However, the validity of the a priori …

We investigate the synchronization behavior of a simple but quite useful mode of emergent
collective behavior in ensembles of interacting dynamical elements, the Kuramoto model …

In the paper,“Time & clocks: A thermodynamic approach” Lucia and Grisolia describe the
connections between the physical nature of time and macroscopic irreversibility in …

Self-sustained order can emerge in complex systems due to internal feedback between
coupled subsystems. Although the general mechanisms are known, the specific paths of …

We discuss spatio-temporal pattern formation in two separate thermal convective systems. In
the first system, hydrothermal waves (HTW) are modeled numerically in an annular channel …

Lets look at a combustion engine, which in the most literal sense is designed to exploit the
Second law of Thermodynamics. Take a glass of petrol, it is in an ordered form of energy by …
