Design with Constructal Theory [PDF]
, 2008 Constructal theory is the view that the generation of “designedness” in nature is a universal (physics) phenomenon that can be based on principle (the constructal law): “For a finite-size flow system to persist in time (to live) its configuration must ...

Constructal Theory: A Tool for Ergonomics [PDF]
, 2015 Constructal theory proposes to see living bodies as machines that are subjected to constraints, which are constructed with a goal, an objective, which is to obtain maximum efficiency.

Constructions in Ramsey theory
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, 2018 We provide several constructions for problems in Ramsey theory. First, we prove a superexponential lower bound for the classical 4-uniform Ramsey number $r_4(5,n)$, and the same for the iterated $(k-4)$-fold logarithm of the $k$-uniform version $r_k(k+1,n)$.

Fluids, 2023 Liquid composite molding techniques are largely used to produce pieces such as truck cabins or wind turbine blades. The liquid resin infusion processes use a network of injection channels to improve the resin flow through a porous-reinforced medium.

Constructive matrix theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 We extend the technique of constructive expansions to compute the connected functions of matrix models in a uniform way as the size of the matrix increases. This provides the main missing ingredient for a non-perturbative construction of the $ϕ^{\star 4}_4$ field theory on the Moyal four dimensional space.

Tree-Shaped Flow Structures Viewed from the Constructal Theory Perspective
, 2012 Constructal theory, conceived by Adrian Bejan, is the view that the generation of configuration in nature is a universal phenomenon, which is covered by a law of physics-the constructal law.

, 2012 Theory construction is a process, i.e., a set of state changes by an autonomous agent, or by an organism composed of several autonomous agents. In the first case, we may recall the approach of Pierce (1931) that considers three logical operations (inference rules) on a knowledge base, i.e., a set of propositions asserted to be valid: abduction ...

Currentology for the Constructal Theory [PDF]
, 2008 Presented an attempt to describe flows of mass, impulse, electrical charge,energy , entropy, exergy and information in the standard divergence form of differential equations for the vectors of their currents, entitled as Currentology.

Geometric optimization of bodies submitted to an intense heat flux using bifurcated channel nets
Vetor, 2010 The present work studies the geometric optimization of a body submitted to intense heat flux. The body to be optimized is refrigerated by a ducts system whose circulating fluid will remove the heat.
