Recovering Navier–Stokes Equations from Asymptotic Limits of the Boltzmann Gas Mixture Equation

This paper is devoted to the derivation of macroscopic fluid dynamics from the Boltzmann mesoscopic dynamics of a binary mixture of hard-sphere gas particles.Specifically the hydrodynamics limit is performed by employing different time and space scalings.The paper shows that,depending on the magnitude of the parameters which define the scaling,the macroscopic quantities(number density,mean velocity and local temperature)are solutions of the acoustic equation,the linear incompressible Euler equation and the incompressible Navier–Stokes equation.The derivation is formally tackled by the recent moment method proposed by[C.Bardos,et al.,J.Stat.Phys.63(1991)323]and the results generalize the analysis performed in[C.Bianca,et al.,Commun.Nonlinear Sci.Numer.Simulat.29(2015)240].

On the Lowest Energy Nucleation Path in a Supersaturated Lattice Gas

A lattice gas with non-conserved spin flip dynamics (of both non-Glauber and Glauber types) is considered at TT _c , the critical temperature. For arbitrary supersaturation, S, a general expression for the inverse of the nucleation rate along the lowest energy path is derived. The exponential part is identical to the one by Neves and Schonmann [Commun. Math. Phys. 137:20 (1991)]. The preexponential can be expressed in terms of elliptic theta-functions for small S, and in the limits, respectively, of ST/ or ST/ (– being the nearest-neighbor interaction energy), elementary versions of the general expression are further obtained. The preexponential has a smooth component, as well as small-scale modulations which are approximately periodic in the inverse supersaturation. For ST/, the smooth part is proportional to , in contrast to the zero-T limit where it is linear in S. The latter limit becomes apparent only at extremely low temperatures which are cubic in S.

We study the projection on the monocolour system and we derive an estimate of the closeness between grand canonical and canonical Gibbs measures.

Parrondo Games as Lattice Gas Automata

Parrondo games are coin flipping games with the surprising property that alternating plays of two losing games can produce a winning game. We show that this phenomenon can be modelled by probabilistic lattice gas automata. Furthermore, motivated by the recent introduction of quantum coin flipping games, we show that quantum lattice gas automata provide an interesting definition for quantum Parrondo games.     

Cole-Hopf Transformation Based Lattice Boltzmann Model for One-dimensional Burgers' Equation

In this paper,we present a Cole-Hopf transformation based lattice Boltzmann(LB) model for solving one-dimensional Burgers' equation,and compared to available LB models,the effect of nonlinear convection term can be eliminated.Through Chapman-Enskog analysis,it can be found that the converted diffusion equation based on the Cole-Hopf transformation can be recovered correctly from present LB model.Some numerical tests are also performed to validate the present LB model,and the numerical results show that,similar to previous LB models,the present model also has a second-order convergence rate in space,but it is more accurate than the previous ones.     

Effects of Field Orientation on the Driven Lattice Gas

Steady states of the driven lattice gas (DLG) on triangular, hexagonal and square lattices with the field at several fixed orientations to the principal lattice vectors were studied by Monte Carlo simulation. In most cases a strong field suppressed change to a low-temperature ordered phase. On each lattice, one field orientation that caused nonequilibrium ordering was identified. On triangular and hexagonal lattices, dependence of energy and anisotropy on field strength was studied at those orientations. Anisotropic ordering along the field developed at intermediate temperatures under weak fields. Partial ordering along the field persisted to low temperature under strong fields.

Scaling Dynamics of a Massive Piston in a Cube Filled with Ideal Gas: Exact Results

We continue the study of the time evolution of a system consisting of a piston in a cubical container of large size L filled with an ideal gas. The piston has mass ML ² and undergoes elastic collisions with NL ³ gas particles of mass m. In a previous paper, Lebowitz et al. considered a scaling regime, with time and space scaled by L, in which they argued heuristically that the motion of the piston and the one particle distribution of the gas satisfy autonomous coupled differential equations. Here we state exact results and sketch proofs for this behavior.     

Phonon Excitation and Energy Redistribution in Phonon Space for Energy Dissipation and Transport in Lattice Structure with Nonlinear Dispersion

We first propose fundamental solutions of wave propagation in dispersive chain subject to a localized initial perturbation in the displacement. Analytical solutions are obtained for both second order nonlinear dispersive chain and homogenous harmonic chain using stationary phase approximation. Solution is also compared with numerical results from molecular dynamics(MD) simulations. Locally dominant phonon modes(k-space) are introduced based on these solutions. These locally defined spatially and temporally varying phonon modes k(x, t) are critical to the concept of the local thermodynamic equilibrium(LTE). Wave propagation accompanying with the nonequilibrium dynamics leads to the excitation of these locally defined phonon modes. It is found that the system energy is gradually redistributed among these excited phonons modes(k-space). This redistribution process is only possible with nonlinear dispersion and requires a finite amount of time to achieve a steady state distribution. This time scale is dependent on the spatial distribution(or frequency content) of the initial perturbation and the dispersion relation. Sharper and more concentrated perturbation leads to a faster energy redistribution and dissipation. This energy redistribution generates localized phonons with various frequencies that can be important for phonon-phonon interaction and energy dissipation in nonlinear systems.Depending on the initial perturbation and temperature, the time scale associated with this energy distribution can be critical for energy dissipation compared to the Umklapp scattering process. Ballistic type of heat transport along the harmonic chain reveals that at any given position, the lowest mode(k = 0) is excited first and gradually expanding to the highest mode(kmax(x, t)), where kmax(x, t) can only asymptotically approach the maximum mode kBof the first Brillouin zone(kmax(x, t) → kB). No energy distributed into modes with kmax(x, t) k kBdemonstrates that the local thermodynamic equilibrium cannot be established in harmonic chain. Energy is shown to be uniformly distributed in all available phonon modes k ≤ kmax(x, t) at any position with heat transfer along the harmonic chain. The energy flux along the chain is shown to be a constant with time and proportional to the sound speed(ballistic transport).Comparison with the Fourier's law leads to a time-dependent thermal conductivity that diverges with time.     

Hierarchy of Combined TL-RTL Equations and an Associated (2+1)-Dimensional Lattice Equation

A new (2 1)-dimensional lattice equation is presented based upon the first two members in the hierarchy of the combined Toda lattice and relativistic Toda lattice (TL-RTL) equations in (1 1) dimensions. A Darboux transformation for the hierarchy of the combined TL-RTL equations is constructed.

Quantum Lattice-Gas Model for the Burgers Equation

A quantum algorithm is presented for modeling the time evolution of a continuous field governed by the nonlinear Burgers equation in one spatial dimension. It is a microscopic-scale algorithm for a type-II quantum computer, a large lattice of small quantum computers interconnected in nearest neighbor fashion by classical communication channels. A formula for quantum state preparation is presented. The unitary evolution is governed by a conservative quantum gate applied to each node of the lattice independently. Following each quantum gate operation, ensemble measurements over independent microscopic realizations are made resulting in a finite-difference Boltzmann equation at the mesoscopic scale. The measured values are then used to re-prepare the quantum state and one time step is completed. The procedure of state preparation, quantum gate application, and ensemble measurement is continued ad infinitum. The Burgers equation is derived as an effective field theory governing the behavior of the quantum computer at its macroscopic scale where both the lattice cell size and the time step interval become infinitesimal. A numerical simulation of shock formation is carried out and agrees with the exact analytical solution.
