The Steady State Fluctuation Relation for the Dissipation Function
Debra J. Searles, Lamberto Rondoni, Denis J. Evans
We give a proof of transient fluctuation relations for the entropy production (dissipation function) in nonequilibrium systems, which is valid for most time reversible dynamics. We…
Isoconfigurational thermostat
Igor Rychkov, Debra J. Searles
A holonomic constraint is used to enforce a constant instantaneous configurational temperature on an equilibrium system. Three sets of equations of motion are obtained, differing a…
On Irreversibility, Dissipation and Response Theory
Denis J. Evans, Debra J. Searles
Recently there has been considerable interest in the Fluctuation Theorem (FT). The FT shows how time reversible microscopic dynamics leads to irreversible macroscopic behavior as t…
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…
New observations regarding deterministic, time reversible thermostats and Gauss's principle of least constraint
Joanne N. Bright, Denis J. Evans, Debra J. Searles
Deterministic thermostats are frequently employed in non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in order to remove the heat produced irreversibly over the course of such simula…
