Statistical Mechanics of Time Independent Non-Dissipative Nonequilibrium States
Stephen R. Williams, Denis J. Evans
We examine the question of whether the formal expressions of equilibrium statistical mechanics can be applied to time independent non-dissipative systems that are not in true therm…
Negative Entropy Production in Oscillatory Processes
Stephen R. Williams, Denis J. Evans, Emil Mittag
Linear irreversible thermodynamics asserts that the instantaneous local spontaneous entropy production is always nonnegative. However for a viscoelastic fluid this is not always th…
Numerical study of the Steady State Fluctuation Relations Far from Equilibrium
Stephen R. Williams, Debra J. Searles, Denis J. Evans
A thermostatted dynamical model with five degrees of freedom is used to test both the Evans-Searles and the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation relations (ESFR and GCFR respectively). In…
