Nonequilibrium Systems is a category for books that explore phenomena in physical, biological, and engineered systems that operate away from thermodynamic equilibrium, where gradients, fluxes, driving, and dissipation produce time-dependent, often nonlinear behavior. Titles typically cover nonequilibrium thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, stochastic and kinetic theories, transport processes, linear and nonlinear response, chaos and turbulence, pattern formation, and self-organization. Methods range from continuum and kinetic equations (reaction–diffusion, Navier–Stokes, master and Fokker–Planck equations) to fluctuation theorems, stochastic calculus, numerical simulation, and data-driven modeling. Applications span active and living matter, chemical and biochemical networks, soft and granular materials, plasmas, climate and geophysical flows, and complex socio-technical systems. The unifying aim is to explain irreversibility and the emergence of structure far from equilibrium, providing both foundational theory and practical modeling tools.
