Thermodynamics of the quasi-static growth of Griffith cracks [PDF]
Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 1978 Abstract R estrictions on the quasi-static extension, or healing, of Griffith cracks are developed in the framework of irreversible thermodynamics. It is emphasized that thermodynamics requires that (G − 2γ)ι ⩾ 0, where ι is crack speed, G the Irwin energy release rate, and 2γ the work of reversible separation of the surfaces to be fractured ...

Thermodynamics of a Phase-Driven Proximity Josephson Junction
Entropy, 2019 We study the thermodynamic properties of a superconductor/normal metal/superconductor Josephson junction in the short limit. Owing to the proximity effect, such a junction constitutes a thermodynamic system where phase difference, supercurrent ...

Non-equilibrium thermodynamic analysis of quasi-static granular flows
Acta Physica Sinica, 2014 Granular flow is usually divided into three kinds of flow pattern, namely quasi static flow, slow flow, and rapid flow. The core issue of the research is the constitutive relation. A series of constitutive relations of application value have been received up to now, however, the study on principal theory is insufficient.

Molecular statistical thermodynamics – A distinct and efficient numerical approach to quasi-static analysis of nanomaterials at finite temperature [PDF]
Composites Part B: Engineering, 2012 This paper briefly reviews a distinct and efficient numerical approach to quasi-static analysis of nanomaterials at finite temperature: molecular statistical thermodynamics (MST), especially its various applications and efficiency. Different from molecular dynamics (MD) based on Newton equations, MST is a half-analytical numerical method based on the ...

Accurate equation of state of rhenium as pressure scale up to 130 GPa and 3200 K
AIP Advances, 2022 The equations of states (EOSs) of inert metals are generally used as pressure scales in a high-pressure experiment. However, the thermodynamic model and the method used to constrain the parameters of the EOSs of these metals may cause pressure deviations

Microscopic derivation of an adiabatic thermodynamic transformation [PDF]
, 2014 We obtain macroscopic adiabatic thermodynamic transformations by space-time scalings of a microscopic Hamiltonian dynamics subject to random collisions with the environment. The microscopic dynamics is given by a chain of oscillators subject to a varying

Statistical forces from close-to-equilibrium media
New Journal of Physics, 2015 We discuss the physical meaning and significance of statistical forces on quasi-static probes in first order around detailed balance for driven media. Exploiting the quasi-static energetics and the structure of (McLennan) steady nonequilibrium ensembles,
