We consider one dimensional weakly asymmetric boundary driven models of heat conduction. In the cases of a constant diffusion coefficient and of a quadratic mobility we compute the quasi-potential that is a non local functional obtained by the solution of a variational problem. This is done using the dynamic variational approach of the macroscopic fluctuation theory cite{MFT}. The case of a concave mobility corresponds essentially to the exclusion model that has been discussed in cite{Lag,CPAM,BGLa,ED}. We consider here the convex case that includes for example the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti (KMP) model and its dual (KMPd) cite{KMP}. This extends to the weakly asymmetric regime the computations in cite{BGL}. We consider then, both microscopically and macroscopically, the limit of large external fields. Microscopically we discuss some possible totally asymmetric limits of the KMP model. In one case the totally asymmetric dynamics has a product invariant measure. Another possible limit dynamics has instead a non trivial invariant measure for which we give a duality representation. Macroscopically we show that the quasi-potentials of KMP and KMPd, that for any fixed external field are non local, become local in the limit. Moreover the dependence on one of the external reservoirs disappears. For models having strictly positive quadratic mobilities we obtain instead in the limit a non local functional having a structure similar to the one of the boundary driven asymmetric exclusion process.

We study the dynamics of condensation of the inclusion process on a one-dimensional periodic lattice in the thermodynamic limit, generalising recent results on finite lattices for symmetric dynamics. Our main focus is on totally asymmetric dynamics w hich have not been studied before, and which we also compare to exact solutions for symmetric systems. We identify all relevant dynamical regimes and corresponding time scales as a function of the system size, including a coarsening regime where clusters move on the lattice and exchange particles, leading to a growing average cluster size. Suitable observables exhibit a power law scaling in this regime before they saturate to stationarity following an exponential decay depending on the system size. Our results are based on heuristic derivations and exact computations for symmetric systems, and are supported by detailed simulation data.
We revisit the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries (TASEP), focussing on the recent discovery by de Gier and Essler that the model has a dynamical transition along a nontrivial line in the phase diagram. This line coincid es neither with any change in the steady-state properties of the TASEP, nor the corresponding line predicted by domain wall theory. We provide numerical evidence that the TASEP indeed has a dynamical transition along the de Gier-Essler line, finding that the most convincing evidence was obtained from Density Matrix Renormalisation Group (DMRG) calculations. By contrast, we find that the dynamical transition is rather hard to see in direct Monte Carlo simulations of the TASEP. We furthermore discuss in general terms scenarios that admit a distinction between static and dynamic phase behaviour.
As a solvable and broadly applicable model system, the totally asymmetric exclusion process enjoys iconic status in the theory of non-equilibrium phase transitions. Here, we focus on the time dependence of the total number of particles on a 1-dimensi onal open lattice, and its power spectrum. Using both Monte Carlo simulations and analytic methods, we explore its behavior in different characteristic regimes. In the maximal current phase and on the coexistence line (between high/low density phases), the power spectrum displays algebraic decay, with exponents -1.62 and -2.00, respectively. Deep within the high/low density phases, we find pronounced emph{oscillations}, which damp into power laws. This behavior can be understood in terms of driven biased diffusion with conserved noise in the bulk.
For an one-dimensional (1D) momentum conserving system, intensive studies have shown that generally its heat current autocorrelation function (HCAF) tends to decay in a power-law manner and results in the breakdown of the Fourier heat conduction law in the thermodynamic limit. This has been recognized to be a dominant hydrodynamic effect. Here we show that, instead, the kinetic effect can be dominant in some cases and leads to the Fourier law. Usually the HCAF undergoes a fast decaying kinetic stage followed by a long, slowly decaying hydrodynamic tail. In a finite range of the system size, we find that whether the system follows the Fourier law depends on whether the kinetic stage dominates. Our study is illustrated by the 1D diatomic gas model, with which the HCAF is derived analytically and verified numerically by molecular dynamics simulations.
Understanding microscopic heat conduction in thin films is important for nano/micro heat transfer and thermal management for advanced electronics. As the thickness of thin films is comparable to or shorter than a phonon wavelength, phonon dispersion relations and transport properties are significantly modulated, which should be taken into account for heat conduction in thin films. Although phonon confinement and depletion effects have been considered, it should be emphasized that surface-localized phonons (surface phonons) arise whose influence on heat conduction may not be negligible due to the high surface-to-volume ratio. However, the role of surface phonons in heat conduction has received little attention thus far. In the present work, we performed anharmonic lattice dynamics calculations to investigate the thickness and temperature dependence of in-plane thermal conductivity of silicon thin films with sub-10-nm thickness in terms of surface phonons. Through systematic analysis of the influences of surface phonons, we found that anharmonic coupling between surface and internal phonons localized in thin films significantly suppresses overall in-plane heat conduction in thin films. We also discovered that specific low-frequency surface phonons significantly contribute to surface--internal phonon scattering and heat conduction suppression. Our findings are beneficial for the thermal management of electronics and phononic devices and may lead to surface phonon engineering for thermal conductivity control.
