The present paper reports our attempt to search for a new universal framework in nonequilibrium physics. We propose a thermodynamic formalism that is expected to apply to a large class of nonequilibrium steady states including a heat conducting fluid, a sheared fluid, and an electrically conducting fluid. We call our theory steady state thermodynamics (SST) after Oono and Paniconi's original proposal. The construction of SST is based on a careful examination of how the basic notions in…

In modeling nonequilibrium systems one usually starts with a definition of the microscopic dynamics, e.g., in terms of transition rates, and then derives the resulting macroscopic behavior. We

The results suggest that an associated steady-state entropy S_{th} be constructed via thermodynamic integration, using relations such as (∂S/∂E)_{V,N}=1/T, ensuring that derivatives of S{th} with respect to energy and particle number yield the expected intensive parameters.
An expression of excess work during the transition between nonequilibrium steady states
Excess work is a nondiverging part of the work during the transition between nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs). It is a central quantity in steady-state thermodynamics (SST), which is a candidate
Stochastic thermodynamics with odd controlling parameters.

• 2019
Stochastic thermodynamics is applied to small systems with odd controlling parameters and it is found that the definition of heat and the microscopically reversible condition are incompatible, which leads to a revision to the fluctuation theorems and nonequilibrium work relations.
