Abstract

Models of a system that are mechanistically based make use of the full range of physical principles that influence system behavior. In addition to these expressions, the thermodynamic properties of the entities in the system, as well as of the system as a whole, impact the observed behavior. The thermodynamic relations that are hypothesized to describe a system impact how that system is modeled and the fidelity of the model compared to the actual behavior of the system. Thermodynamics plays a role not only in describing system properties and parameters but also in identifying limits on system behavior that might be observed.
