French term or phrase: Thermondynamique proche de l'équilibre et transport
This is one of the course components of an MSc in Physics - the module preceding it is called 'Thermodynamique d'équilibre et états de la matière' which I think is 'Thermodynamics of equilibrium and states of matter' (I'm not 100% sure this is correct though).

Would a specialist be able to help?

Thanks!

agree  Nils Andersson: it says "proche". The correct answer must have "close" or something close to that.

neutral  chris collister: I'm glad you changed it: "non-equilibrium thermodynamics" is very different. "Near-equilibrium..." for preference.

agree  rkillings: with 'near-equilibrium'. Near is a long way from non!
