Understanding the Frequency Distribution of Mechanically Stable Disk Packings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Relative frequencies of mechanically stable (MS) packings of frictionless bidisperse disks are studied numerically in small systems. The packings are created by successively compressing or decompressing a system of soft purely repulsive disks, followed ...

Application of Second Law Analysis in Heat Exchanger Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
In recent decades, the second law of thermodynamics has been commonly applied in analyzing heat exchangers. Many researchers believe that the minimization of entropy generation or exergy losses can be considered as an objective function in designing heat
