Symplectic Foliation Structures of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics as Dissipation Model: Application to Metriplectic Nonlinear Lindblad Quantum Master Equation

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
The idea of a canonical ensemble from Gibbs has been extended by Jean-Marie Souriau for a symplectic manifold where a Lie group has a Hamiltonian action.

Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Thermodynamics is the study of energy and its transfers though work. This course will focus on the fundamentals of thermodynamics, including the First and Second Laws, thermodynamic properties, ideal gases, and equations of state. This free course may be

The Thermodynamics of Exercise Science [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This article describes the "human body engine" via a thermodynamics-based model that considers the work associated with gas pressure, volume and temperature changes for the glucose-based equation of respiration.

Dynamics and thermodynamics of protein-ligand interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Complex networks of protein-ligand interactions underpin cellular function and communication. Disease can arise from disruption of these networks through the alteration of protein-ligand interaction affinities, for example by protein mutation or ligand ...

Thermodynamics as Control Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
I explore the reduction of thermodynamics to statistical mechanics by treating the former as a control theory: a theory of which transitions between states can be induced on a system (assumed to obey some known underlying dynamics) by means of operations

Time in Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It is often claimed, or hoped, that some temporal asymmetries are explained by the thermodynamic asymmetry in time. Thermodynamics, the macroscopic physics of pressure, temperature, volume, and so on, describes many temporally asymmetric processes.

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics in Biochemical Systems and Its Application

open access: yes, 2021
Living systems are open systems, where the laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics play the important role. Therefore, studying living systems from a nonequilibrium thermodynamic aspect is interesting and useful.

Endoreversible models for the thermodynamics of computing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Landauer's principle says that, in principle, a computation can be performed without consumption of work, provided no information is erased during the computational process.

Impact of a New Sea Ice Thermodynamic Formulation in the CESM2 Sea Ice Component

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
The sea ice component of the Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2) contains new “mushy‐layer” physics that simulates prognostic salinity in the sea ice, with consequent modifications to sea ice thermodynamics and the treatment of melt ponds. The
