Active transport: A kinetic description based on thermodynamic grounds
S. Kjelstrup, J. M. Rubi, D. Bedeaux
We show that active transport processes in biological systems can be understood through a local equilibrium description formulated at the mesoscale, the scale to describe stochasti…
Surface tension of liquids near the critical point
N. V. Brilliantov, J. M. Rubi
A simple analytical microscopic expression for the surface tension of liquids is obtained which is in a good agreement with available data of numerical experiments. We apply th…
Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Colloids
D. Bedeaux, J. M. Rubi
The common rules of classical nonequilibrium thermodynamics do not allow an Onsager coefficient like the viscosity to depend on the shear rate. Such a dependence is experimentally…
A field-oriented chain of dipolar particles in elongational flow
M. -Carmen Miguel, J. M. Rubi
We study the behavior of an isolated field-oriented chain of dipolar particles in elongational fluid flow. Our main goal is to emphasize the effect of dipolar interactions on the c…
