Abstract
Abstract Dispersive diffusion and wave propagation seem to be unconnected and fundamentally different evolution equations. In the context of anomalous diffusion however modeling approaches based on fractional diffusion equations have been presented, which allow to build a continuous bridge between the two regimes. The transition from irreversible dispersive diffusion to reversible wave propagation shows an unexpected increase in entropy production. This seemingly paradoxical behavior of fractional diffusion is reviewed and compared to the behavior of a tree-based diffusion model.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics serves as an international publication organ for new ideas, insights and results on non-equilibrium phenomena in science, engineering and related natural systems. The central aim of the journal is to provide a bridge between science and engineering and to promote scientific exchange on a) newly observed non-equilibrium phenomena, b) analytic or numeric modeling for their interpretation, c) vanguard methods to describe non-equilibrium phenomena.
Contributions should – among others – present novel approaches to analyzing, modeling and optimizing processes of engineering relevance such as transport processes of mass, momentum and energy, separation of fluid phases, reproduction of living cells, or energy conversion. The journal is particularly interested in contributions which add to the basic understanding of non-equilibrium phenomena in science and engineering, with systems of interest ranging from the macro- to the nano-level.
The Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics has recently expanded its scope to place new emphasis on theoretical and experimental investigations of non-equilibrium phenomena in thermophysical, chemical, biochemical and abstract model systems of engineering relevance. We are therefore pleased to invite submissions which present newly observed non-equilibrium phenomena, analytic or fuzzy models for their interpretation, or new methods for their description.
