N2 - In this paper, we show that the evolution equations for nonequilibrium thermodynamics can be formulated in terms of Dirac structures on the Pontryagin bundle P =TQ ⊕ T*Q, where Q = Q ×s R denotes the thermodynamic configuration manifold. In particular, we extend the use of Dirac structures from the case of linear nonholonomic constraints to the case of nonlinear nonholonomic constraints. Such a nonlinear constraint comes from the entropy production associated with irreversible processes in nonequilibrium thermodynamics. We also develop the induced Dirac structure on N=T*Q × R and the associated Lagrange-Dirac and Hamilton-Dirac dynamical formulations.
