Sentences with phrase «nonequilibrium steady»

In a new dissipative structure (either a steady state or a limit cycle), concentrations of chemicals and rates of mass - transfer between the system and surroundings will not be those characteristic of the previous equilibrium state (or the nonequilibrium steady state that corresponds to it under conditions of instability) but rather they will be the (perhaps quite different) average values which pertain to the new structure.

An interesting question is: how does the system decide which of the two possible nonequilibrium steady states to approach?

However, if fluctuations (that exceed certain minimum values in magnitude and extent) are included, then the instability of the initial (Nigerian) steady state is demonstrated, and the system approaches one (Irish) or the other (Ivory Coastian) of the two stable nonequilibrium steady states.

As the concentration of reagent is increased, the system would be taken beyond the chemical instability, and there would be two equally probable nonequilibrium steady states.

Not exact matches

At the same time one should bring various non reproducible quasi steady state nonequilibrium thermodynamic systems in the lab and study them experimentally.
