Equilibrium - non-equilibrium?– Mechanics – thermodynamics

• Differential equations?– Equilibrium - time independent– Quasistatic processes – time? (Zeno)– Irreversible processes – something more (internal variables)

II. law?– Heat can flow from a hotter body to the colder.

(Clausius)– There is no perpetuum mobile of the second kind.

(Planck)– In a closed system, in case of spontaneous processes the entropy

increases.– dS = drS + diS és diS0– ….

Discrete systems – equilibrium thermodynamics

Equilibrium thermodynamics

– S entropy

– de = q+w = Tds – pdv Gibbs relation

– There is a tendency to equilibrium

– Thermodynamic stability

What is?

Basic ingredients:

L: E is a Ljapunov function of the equilibrium, if:i) L has a strict maximum at ,

ii) , the derivative of L along the differential equation has a strict minimum at .

Theorem: If there is a Ljapunov function of , then is

asymptotically stable (stable and attractive).

Conclusions

– A thermodynamic structure is a stability structure• Time dependent discrete systems!• Equilibrium – quasistatic – irreversible

– Completing the structure: theory construction• Static: consistency, thermic caloric• Dynamics: Onsager reciprocity, constitutive functions, • Constructive!

– Stability of the theory: stability of the calculations.• Robust numerical codes: numerical viscosity

– Discrete – continuum: the same principles.
