A basis of resolutive sets for the heat equation: an elementary construction

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2023
By an easy “trick” taken from the caloric polynomial theory, we prove the existence of a basis of the Euclidean topology whose elements are resolutive sets of the heat equation.

Brain More Resistant to Energy Restriction Than Body: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
The gluco-lipostatic theory and its modern variants assume that blood glucose and energy stores are controlled in closed-loop feedback processes. The Selfish Brain theory is based on the same assumptions, but additionally postulates that the brain, as an

Proximal Disruption of Brain Energy Supply Raises Systemic Blood Glucose: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
This work joins a series that methodically tests the predictions of the Selfish-Brain theory. The theory postulates a vital ability of the mammalian brain, namely to give priority to its own energy metabolism.

Weighing the importance of animal body size in traditional food systems

open access: yesFACETS, 2022
Traditional food systems based on harvest from the local environment are fundamental to the well-being of many communities, but their security is challenged by rapid socio-ecological change. We synthesized literature and data describing how a fundamental

Action and Entropy in Heat Engines: An Action Revision of the Carnot Cycle

open access: yesEntropy, 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.

The Frictional effects in serial harmonic circuit

open access: yesInternational Journal of Multiphysics, 2016
In the paper we make the friction effect in the serial sonic system were the sonic flow are influence by the friction. This effect makes the growing of the temperature in the sonic resistance, same the caloric effect of the alternative current.

Liquid-gas phase transition in nuclei in the relativistic Thomas-Fermi theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The equation of state (EOS) of finite nuclei is constructed in the relativistic Thomas-Fermi theory using the non-linear $\sigma-\omega -\rho$ model. The caloric curves are calculated by confining the nuclei in the freeze-out volume taken to be a sphere ...

Molecular Mechanisms and Mediators of Hepatotoxicity Resulting from an Excess of Lipids and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

open access: yesGastrointestinal Disorders, 2023
The paper reviews some of the mechanisms implicated in hepatotoxicity, which is induced by an excess of lipids. The paper spans a wide variety of topics: from the molecular mechanisms of excess lipids, to the therapy of hyperlipidemia, to the ...

Localism vs. Individualism for the Scientific Realism Debate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Localism is the view that the unit of evaluation in the scientific realism debate is a single scientific discipline, sub-discipline, or claim, whereas individualism is the view that the unit of evaluation is a single scientific theory.

Critiques of Axiological Realism and Surrealism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Lyons’s (2003, 2018) axiological realism holds that science pursues true theories. I object that despite its name, it is a variant of scientific antirealism, and is susceptible to all the problems with scientific antirealism.
