Microscopic Chaos, Fractals And Transport in Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics by Rainer Klages
Microscopic Chaos, Fractals And Transport in Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics (Advanced Series in Nonlinear Dynamics) by Rainer Klages
Publisher: World Scientific | June 15, 2007 | ISBN: 9812565078 | Pages: 460 | PDF | 12.4 MB
A valuable introduction for newcomers as well as an important reference and source of inspiration for established researchers, this book provides an up-to-date summary of central topics in the field of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and dynamical systems theory. Understanding macroscopic properties of matter starting from microscopic chaos in the equations of motion of single atoms or molecules is a key problem in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Of particular interest both for theory and applications are transport processes such as diffusion, reaction, conduction and viscosity. Recent advances towards a deterministic theory of nonequilibrium statistical physics are summarized: Both Hamiltonian dynamical systems under nonequilibrium boundary conditions and non-Hamiltonian modelings of nonequilibrium steady states by using thermal reservoirs are considered.
