Abstract

Description

We show that the recently postulated non-standard definition of work proportional to force variation rather than to displacement [A. Imparato and L. Peliti, cond-mat arXiv:0706.1134v1] is thermodynamically inconsistent at both microscopic and macroscopic scales and leads to non-physical results, including free energy changes that depend on arbitrary parameters.
