Minimal entropic kinetic models for hydrodynamics
We derive minimal discrete models of the Boltzmann equation consistent with equilibrium thermodynamics, and which recover correct hydrodynamics in arbitrary dimensions. A new discrete velocity model…

Thermodynamically Admissible Form for Discrete Hydrodynamics
We construct a discrete model of fluid particles according to a two generator formalism for nonequilibrium thermodynamics. The model has the form of smoothed particle hydrodynamics including correct…

Systematic coarse graining:"Four lessons and a caveat"from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics
With the guidance offered by nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics, simulation techniques are elevated from brute-force computer experiments to systematic tools for extracting complete,…

TLDR
The general equation for the nonequ equilibrium reversible-irreversible coupling (GENERIC) framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics for open systems is developed and the thermodynamic treatment of surface excess variables at walls and their role in boundary conditions for the bulk variables is exemplified.

Systematic time-scale-bridging molecular dynamics applied to flowing polymer melts.
TLDR
The systematic coarse-graining method is exemplified for low-molecular polymeric systems subjected to homogeneous flow fields and allows for the calculation of time-dependent behavior through quantities readily available from nonequilibrium steady states.

Probing a critical length scale at the glass transition.
TLDR
The approach is to introduce an external, static perturbation to extract the structural information from the system's response, in particular, the transformation behavior of the local minima of the underlying potential energy landscape (inherent structures), under a static deformation.

Inconsistency of a dissipative contribution to the mass flux in hydrodynamics.
TLDR
It is stated with confidence that a dissipative contribution to the mass flux is not possible because the smoothed velocity field v[over ] is nonlocal and leads to unacceptable consequences in specific situations.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of transport through moving interfaces with application to bubble growth and collapse.
We develop the general equation for the nonequilibrium reversible-irreversible coupling framework of thermodynamics to handle moving interfaces in the context of a gas that can be dissolved in a…

Nonlinear thermodynamic quantum master equation: Properties and examples
The quantum master equation obtained from two different thermodynamic arguments is seriously nonlinear. We argue that, for quantum systems, nonlinearity occurs naturally in the step from reversible…
