Ergodic Properties of an Infinite One Dimensional Hard Rod System*
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown that an infinite one dimensional system of hard rods for which the "effective" velocities of the pulses (free velocity plus a drift term due to collisions) are bounded away from some neighborhood of 0 is Bernoulli. This generalizes a result of Sinai who showed that some hard rod systems are X-systems.

Ergodic Properties of a System in Contact with a Heat Bath: A One Dimensional Model*
We consider a one-dimensional model of a system in contact with a heat bath: A particle (the system or molecule) of mass M, confined to the unit interval [0, 1], is surrounded by an infinite ideal gas (the bath of atoms) of point particles of mass m with which it interacts via elastic collisions. The atoms are not affected by the walls at 0 and at 1. We obtain "convergence to equilibrium" for t...
متن کاملErgodic Properties of an Infinite System of Particles Moving Independently in a Periodic Field*
We investigate the ergodic properties of a general class of infinite systems of independent particles which undergo nontrivial "collisions" with an external field, e.g. fixed convex barriers (the Lorentz gas). We relate the ergodic properties of these systems to the ergodic properties for a single particle moving in a finite box (with periodic boundary conditions) with the same dynamics. We pro...
متن کاملNon-linear ergodic theorems in complete non-positive curvature metric spaces
Hadamard (or complete $CAT(0)$) spaces are complete, non-positive curvature, metric spaces. Here, we prove a nonlinear ergodic theorem for continuous non-expansive semigroup in these spaces as well as a strong convergence theorem for the commutative case. Our results extend the standard non-linear ergodic theorems for non-expansive maps on real Hilbert spaces, to non-expansive maps on Ha...
متن کاملModifications to Walker-Anderson Model for Analysis of High-velocity Penetration of an Eroding Long-rod Projectile into Semi-infinite Concrete Targets
This paper presents a modified form of the Walker-Anderson (W-A) model for analyzing high velocity penetration of an eroding projectile into a concrete target in which the W-A model is improved by incorporating calculations for the plastic flow field of concrete in terms of its compressibility and strain rate sensitivity under severe pressure. With the changes to and calculations of plastic fie...
متن کاملTorsional wave propagation in 1D and two dimensional functionally graded rod
In this study, torsional wave propagation is investigated in a rod that are made of one and two dimensional functionally graded material. Firstly, the governing equations of the wave propagation in the functionally graded cylinder derived in polar coordinate. Secondly, finite difference method is used to discretize the equations. The Von Neumann stability approach is used to obtain the time ste...
