Thermodynamic extremal principle and its application to Dufour and Soret effects and plasticity
An extremal principle is formulated for thermodynamic systems near equilibrium subjected to various external conditions. It is shown that the principle describes unambiguously the kinetics of the thermodynamic system and replaces classical phenomenological equations. Thus the principle can be consid...
