Abstract
In this paper, we review and compare some geometric frameworks for dissipation in non-equilibrium thermodynamics. We start with a brief overview of classical irreversible thermodynamics and gradient dynamics. Then we discuss several specific frameworks including Rayleigh dissipation potential and the dissipative d'Alembert framework, showing their relations with gradient dynamics. Finally, we discuss frameworks for dissipative evolution generated from Poisson brackets.
