Time-Reversible Thermodynamic Irreversibility : One-Dimensional Heat-Conducting Oscillators and Two-Dimensional Newtonian Shockwaves
William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover
We analyze the time-reversible mechanics of two irreversible simulation types. The first is a dissipative one-dimensional heat-conducting oscillator exposed to a temperature gradie…
Thermodynamic Entropy from Sadi Carnot's Cycle using Gauss' and Doll's-Tensor Molecular Dynamics
William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover
Carnot's four-part ideal-gas cycle includes both isothermal and adiabatic expansions and compressions. Analyzing this cycle provides the fundamental basis for statistical thermodyn…
Computational Implementation of Maxwell's Knudsen-Gas Demon and Its Extension to a Two-Dimensional Soft-Disk Fluid
William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover
An interesting preprint by Puru Gujrati, "Maxwell's Demon Must Remain Subservient to Clausius' Statement" [ of the Second Law of Thermodynamics ], traces the development and applic…
Nonequilibrium Time Reversibility with Maps and Walks
William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover, Edward R. Smith
Time-reversible dynamical simulations of nonequilibrium systems exemplify both Loschmidt's and Zermélo's paradoxes. That is, computational time-reversible simulations invariably pr…
The Simplest Viscous Flow
William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover
We illustrate an atomistic periodic two-dimensional stationary shear flow, , using the simplest possible example, the periodic shear of…
What is Liquid ? [in two dimensions]
Karl P. Travis, William Graham Hoover, Carol Griswold Hoover +1
We consider the practicalities of defining, simulating, and characterizing "Liquids" from a pedagogical standpoint based on atomistic computer simulations. For simplicity and clari…
