Energy Dissipation on Block Ramps

Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 2006
Block ramps are structures often used in river restoration projects. They generally ensure a stable streambed and produce high energy dissipation. This paper shows the results of an experimental investigation conducted at the Hydraulic Laboratory of the Univ.

Energy Dissipation in Brown Fat

1978
Heat evolution in isolated brown fat cells has been measured by microcalorimetry. Thermogenesis (= oxygen consumption) is enhanced in the presence of CO2. This effect is probably due to pyruvate carboxylase activity which will increase the mitochondrial concentration of oxaloacetate.

Energy balance for a dissipative system

Physical Review E, 1993
In general, dissipative problems involve both frictional and fluctuation forces. As it turns out, solutions of many of these problems are encompassed by the generalized quantum Langevin equation. Here, we use this equation to obtain a general expression for the work done by the fluctuation force on a quantum particle.

Dissipation of Mechanical Energy in Muscles

Journal of Biomechanics, 1985
When an active muscle is stretched so-called negative work is done on the muscle. This often means that mechanical energy is lost, and at least in sports this energy loss seems to be considered unwanted.

Energy dissipation in shear driven turbulence

Physical Review Letters, 1992
The Navier-Stokes equations are utilized to derive upper bounds on the turbulent energy dissipation rate for an incompressible Newtonian fluid confined between parallel comoving plates. These estimates provide a rigorous foundation for one of the basic scaling ideas of turbulence theory, namely, the independence of the dissipation rate and the ...

Energy Dissipation and Stability of Propagating Surfaces

Physical Review Letters, 2005
Thermodynamic equilibrium states are given by the minimum of a convex free energy function with suitable boundary conditions. Nonconvexity may lead to the coexistence of several phases and the classical Gibbs phase rule allows constructing their equilibrium properties (e.g., density or pressure).
