The limits of the application of some thermodynamical quantities (e.g. temperature, entropy, chemical potential) to the living systems and their compartments, e.g. membranes, cells, muscles, bones, etc. Balance laws of mass, momentum, electrical and magnetical induction, energy and entropy. Chemical kinetics and chemical thermodynamics. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics, Prigogin's principle of the minimum entropy production. Structure and function of biological cells, membrane transport. Electrical activity of neural and muscle cells - Hodgkin-Huxley model. FitzHugh-Nagumo model of excited tissue. Biological oscillations, thermodynamical aspects of biological evolution, bone remodelation, hemodynamics of the human cardiovascular system.
