Video on microstates, macrostates and multiplicity. Example: two state model.
(The order of presentation is slightly different this year, so don't worry if the video refers to something you do not remember hearing about. We will get to it!)
As you see you will need some of your knowledge in statistics. Some questions to recap:
Video on multiplicity of 3 models: 2-state paramagnet, random walk and Einstein crystal
Video on Matlab calculation of multiplicity of coupled Einstein crystals and corresponding Matlab script
Video on Matlab simulation of "heat conduction" between coupled Einstein crystals and corresponding Matlab script
Is the development in this movie impossible or just very unlikely?
Video on the phenomenon of diffusion
Video on Molecular Dynamics models of diffusion
These are the Lammps input files for the 3D and 2D MD simulations of diffusion in this lecture. You may run them yourselves.
Video on the random walk and an algorithmic model of diffusion.
These are the Matlab scripts for the two random walks using a for loop and using vectors and the algorithmic model
