Thermodynamic Analysis of Bistability in Rayleigh–Bénard Convection

Bistability is often encountered in association with dissipative systems far from equilibrium, such as biological, physical, and chemical phenomena. There have been various attempts to theoretically analyze the bistabilities of dissipative systems. However, there is no universal theoretical approach...
