Action and Entropy in Heat Engines: An Action Revision of the Carnot Cycle
Entropy, 2021 Despite the remarkable success of Carnot’s heat engine cycle in founding the discipline of thermodynamics two centuries ago, false viewpoints of his use of the caloric theory in the cycle linger, limiting his legacy.

Caloric curve for finite nuclei in Thomas-Fermi theory [PDF]
Physical Review C, 1997 In a finite temperature Thomas-Fermi theory with realistic nuclear interactions, we construct caloric curves for finite nuclei enclosed in a sphere of about $4 - 8$ times the normal nuclear volume. The specific heat capacity $C_v$ shows a peaked structure that is possibly indicative of a liquid-gas phase transition in finite nuclear systems.

Brain Mass (Energy) Resistant to Hyperglycaemic Oversupply: A Systematic Review
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Cerebral energy supply is determined by the energy content of the blood. Accordingly, the brain is undersupplied during hypoglycaemia. Whether or not there is an additional cerebral energy demand that depends upon the energy content of the brain is ...

Sadi Carnot’s Réflexions and the foundation of thermodynamics
Substantia, 2019 The purpose of this article is to present a short review of Sadi Carnot work on heat engines and on the role his adherence to the caloric theory may have had.

Entropy, 2018 In the current work, a novel 2D numerical model of stationary grids was developed for reciprocating magnetic refrigerators, with Gd plates, in which the magneto-caloric properties, derived from the Weiss molecular field theory, were adopted for the built-

Frustrated magnetism and caloric effects in Mn-based antiperovskite nitrides: Ab initio theory [PDF]
Physical Review B, 2017 We model changes of magnetic ordering in Mn-antiperovskite nitrides driven by biaxial lattice strain at zero and at finite temperature. We employ a non-collinear spin-polarised density functional theory to compare the response of the geometrically frustrated exchange interactions to a tetragonal symmetry breaking (the so called piezomagnetic effect ...
