Thermodynamics: The Unique Universal Science

Entropy, 2017
Thermodynamics is a physical branch of science that governs the thermal behavior of dynamical systems from those as simple as refrigerators to those as complex as our expanding universe.

Entropic constraint on cosmic variation of Planck mass and the Boltzmann constant

Results in Physics
In cosmology, cosmic variations of fundamental constraints are constrained by the arrow of time of astrophysical black holes, given the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy S∼kBM/mp2 of their event horizon parameterized by black hole mass M and the Planck mass mp ...

Warum etwas wird

Österreichische Zeitschrift für Geschichtswissenschaften, 2002
Development and dissolution are basic characteristics of a wide variety of systems. The latter include biological ones, but also non-living systems as, for example, geological onesand, of course, also social systems.

New Cybernetics and the Application of its Principles in Physics [PDF]

Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2013
We describe principles of new cybernetics and use these principles for resolution of basic physical paradoxes. It demonstrates universality of the principles of new cybernetics.

Application of the field synergy principle in rotating thermal energy storage systems: A multi-objective comprehensive evaluation of fin performance

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
This study pioneers the application of the Field Synergy Principle (FSP) to evaluate and optimize fin configurations in rotating thermal energy storage systems (TESS) using phase change materials (PCM).

Functional hierarchies in brain dynamics characterized by signal reversibility in ferret cortex.

PLoS Computational Biology
Brain signal irreversibility has been shown to be a promising approach to study neural dynamics. Nevertheless, the relation with cortical hierarchy and the influence of different electrophysiological features is not completely understood.
