Predicting Ion Sequestration in Charged Polymers with the Steepest-Entropy-Ascent Quantum Thermodynamic Framework
Jared McDonald, Michael R. von Spakovsky, William T. Reynolds
The steepest-entropy-ascent quantum thermodynamic framework is used to investigate the effectiveness of multi-chain polyethyleneimine-methylenephosphonic acid in sequestering rare-…
Predicting Coupled Electron and Phonon Transport Using Steepest-Entropy-Ascent Quantum Thermodynamics
J. A. Worden, M. R. von Spakovsky, C. Hin
The principal paradigm for determining the thermoelectric properties of materials is based on the Boltzmann transport equations (BTEs) or Landauer equivalent. These equations depen…
Predicting Polymer Brush Behavior in Solvents using the Steepest-Entropy-Ascent Quantum Thermodynamic Framework
Jared McDonald, Michael R. von Spakovsky, William T. Reynolds
The steepest-entropy-ascent quantum thermodynamic (SEAQT) framework is utilized to study the effects of temperature on polymer brushes. The brushes are represented by a discrete en…
