Generalizations of Onsager reciprocity relations are established for the nonlinear response coefficients of ballistic transport in the effusion of gaseous mixtures. These generalizations, which have been established on the basis of the fluctuation theorem for the currents, are here considered for mass separation by effusion. In this kinetic process, the mean values of the currents depend nonlinearly on the affinities or thermodynamic forces controlling the nonequilibrium constraints. These nonlinear transport effects are shown to play an important role in the process of mass separation. In particular, the entropy efficiency turns out to be significantly larger than it would be the case if the currents were supposed to depend linearly on the affinities.

A variation principle for mass transport in solids is derived that recasts transport coefficients as minima of local thermodynamic average quantities. The result is independent of diffusion mechanism, and applies to amorphous and crystalline systems.
This unifies different computational approaches for diffusion, and provides a framework for the creation of new approximation methods with error estimation. It gives a different physical interpretation of the Green function. Finally, the variational principle quantifies the accuracy of competing approaches for a nontrivial diffusion problem.
We study the phenomenon of real space condensation in the steady state of a class of one dimensional mass transport models. We derive the criterion for the occurrence of a condensation transition and analyse the precise nature of the shape and the si
ze of the condensate in the condensed phase. We find two distinct condensate regimes: one where the condensate is gaussian distributed and the particle number fluctuations scale normally as $L^{1/2}$ where $L$ is the system size, and a second regime where the particle number fluctuations become anomalously large and the condensate peak is non-gaussian. We interpret these results within the framework of sums of random variables.
We demonstrate the phenomenon of cumulative inertia in intracellular transport involving multiple motor proteins in human epithelial cells by measuring the empirical survival probability of cargoes on the microtubule and their detachment rates. We fo
und the longer a cargo moves along a microtubule, the less likely it detaches from it. As a result, the movement of cargoes is non-Markovian and involves a memory. We observe memory effects on the scale of up to 2 seconds. We provide a theoretical link between the measured detachment rate and the super-diffusive Levy walk-like cargo movement.
Transport coefficients associated with the mass flux of impurities immersed in a moderately dense granular gas of hard disks or spheres described by the inelastic Enskog equation are obtained by means of the Chapman-Enskog expansion. The transport co
efficients are determined as the solutions of a set of coupled linear integral equations recently derived for polydisperse granular mixtures [V. Garzo, J. W. Dufty and C. M. Hrenya, Phys. Rev. E {bf 76}, 031304 (2007)]. With the objective of obtaining theoretical expressions for the transport coefficients that are sufficiently accurate for highly inelastic collisions, we solve the above integral equations by using the second Sonine approximation. As a complementary route, we numerically solve by means of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC) the inelastic Enskog equation to get the kinetic diffusion coefficient $D_0$ for two and three dimensions. We have observed in all our simulations that the disagreement, for arbitrarily large inelasticity, in the values of both solutions (DSMC and second Sonine approximation) is less than 4%. Moreover, we show that the second Sonine approximation to $D_0$ yields a dramatic improvement (up to 50%) over the first Sonine approximation for impurity particles lighter than the surrounding gas and in the range of large inelasticity. The results reported in this paper are of direct application in important problems in granular flows, such as segregation driven by gravity and a thermal gradient. We analyze here the segregation criteria that result from our theoretical expressions of the transport coefficients.
Transport coefficients associated with the mass flux of a binary mixture of Maxwell molecules under uniform shear flow are exactly determined from the Boltzmann kinetic equation. A normal solution is obtained via a Chapman--Enskog-like expansion arou
nd a local shear flow distribution that retains all the hydrodynamics orders in the shear rate. In the first order of the expansion the mass flux is proportional to the gradients of mole fraction, pressure, and temperature but, due to the anisotropy induced in the system by the shear flow, mutual diffusion, pressure diffusion and thermal diffusion tensors are identified instead of the conventional scalar coefficients. These tensors are obtained in terms of the shear rate and the parameters of the mixture (particle masses, concentrations, and force constants). The description is made both in the absence and in the presence of an external thermostat introduced in computer simulations to compensate for the viscous heating. As expected, the analysis shows that there is not a simple relationship between the results with and without the thermostat. The dependence of the three diffusion tensors on the shear rate is illustrated in the tracer limit case, the results showing that the deviation of the generalized transport coefficients from their equilibrium forms is in general quite important. Finally, the generalized transport coefficients associated with the momentum and heat transport are evaluated from a model kinetic equation of the Boltzmann equation.
