A useful correspondence between fluid convection and ecosystem operation
S. Bruers, F. Meysman
Both ecological systems and convective fluid systems are examples of open systems which operate far-from-equilibrium. This article demonstrates that there is a correspondence betwe…
A discussion on maximum entropy production and information theory
Stijn Bruers
We will discuss the maximum entropy production (MaxEP) principle based on Jaynes' information theoretical arguments, as was done by Dewar (2003, 2005). With the help of a simple ma…
Testing entropy production hypotheses in non-linear steady states
Stijn Bruers
In the last few decades, some hypotheses for entropy production (EP) principles have been forwarded as possible candidates for organizational principles in non-linear non- equilibr…
On the validity of entropy production principles for linear electrical circuits
Stijn Bruers, Christian Maes, Karel Netocny
We discuss the validity of close-to-equilibrium entropy production principles in the context of linear electrical circuits. Both the minimum and the maximum entropy production prin…
Classification and discussion of macroscopic entropy production principles
Stijn Bruers
In this article a classification of some proposed macroscopic entropy production (MEP) principles is given. With the help of simple electrical network models, at least six interest…
