Multiscale Mesoscopic Entropy of Driven Macroscopic Systems
How do macroscopic systems react to imposed external forces? Attempts to answer this question by a general principle have a long history. The general feeling is that the macroscopic systems in their reaction to imposed external forces follow some kind of optimization strategy in which their internal structure is changed so that they offer the least possible resistance. What is the potential inv...
متن کاملPhase transitions in periodically driven macroscopic systems.
We study the large-time behavior of a class of periodically driven macroscopic systems. We find, for a certain range of the parameters of either the system or the driving fields, the time-averaged asymptotic behavior effectively is that of certain other equilibrium systems. We then illustrate with a few examples how the conventional knowledge of the equilibrium systems can be made use of in cho...
متن کاملStochastic and Macroscopic Thermodynamics of Strongly Coupled Systems
We develop a thermodynamic framework that describes a classical system of interest S that is strongly coupled to its thermal environment E. Within this framework, seven key thermodynamic quantities— internal energy, entropy, volume, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, heat, and work—are defined microscopically. These quantities obey thermodynamic relations including both the first and second law, and ...
متن کاملThe Thermodynamics of Small Driven Systems
In the present thesis, a thermodynamic theory is developed for driven soft matter systems like polymer solutions and colloidal suspensions. Within this theory, notions like the work applied to the system externally and the heat dissipated into a heat reservoir will be defined consistently. Going beyond mean values, all quantities are defined along a single trajectory. This thermodynamic approac...
متن کاملApplication of thermodynamics to driven systems
Application of thermodynamics to driven systems is discussed. As particular examples, simple traffic flow models are considered. On a microscopic level, traffic flow is described by Bando’s optimal velocity model in terms of accelerating and decelerating forces. It allows to introduce kinetic, potential, as well as total energy, which is the internal energy of the car system in view of thermody...
