A team of experts is developing new mathematical models that are based on a modern version of third-generation thermodynamics. They are analyzing various methods to examine a wide range of local nonequilibrium transport processes. Their project is based on the local equilibrium principle due to the incapability of traditional thermodynamics to explain the processes that occur under local nonequilibrium conditions. Experts are considering this method crucial for fundamental science and practical applications and believe it helps to study the processes that are important for modern nanotechnology.
