Predictive Statistical Mechanics [E-Book] : A Nonequilibrium Ensemble Formalism / by Roberto Luzzi, Áurea R. Vasconcellos, J. Galvão Ramos.
Chapters 1 to 5 include a description of the philosophy, foundations, and construction (methodology) of the formalism, including the derivation of a nonequilibrium grand-canonical ensemble for far-from-equilibrium systems as well as the derivation of a quantum nonlinear kinetic theory and a response...
