Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Challenges, Solutions, and Future Directions

open access: yes, 2020
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) is a novel class of deep generative models which has recently gained significant attention. GANs learns complex and high-dimensional distributions implicitly over images, audio, and data. However, there exists major

Thermodynamics of Thermoelectric Phenomena and Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fifty years ago, the optimization of thermoelectric devices was analyzed by considering the relation between optimal performances and local entropy production. Entropy is produced by the irreversible processes in thermoelectric devices.

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

Entropy-information perspective to radiogenic heat distribution in continental crust [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2013
Depth distribution of radiogenic heat sources in continental crust is an important parameter that controls its thermal structure as well as the mantle heat flow at the base of continental lithosphere.

Thermal Equilibrium Curves and Turbulent Mixing in Keplerian Accretion Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We consider vertical heat transport in Keplerian accretion disks, including the effects of radiation, convection, and turbulent mixing driven by the Balbus-Hawley instability, in astronomical systems ranging from dwarf novae (DNe), and soft X-ray ...

Analysis of Entropy Generation Minimization in Circular Porous Fins [PDF]

open access: yesISRN Chemical Engineering, 2012
This work introduces a simple method of exergy analysis in a typical circular porous fin. The entropy generation of any thermodynamic system provides a useful measure of the extent of irreversibility. The irreversibility causes the loss of useful work (exergy) in the system and hence the loss of exergy has to be minimized.

Entropy generation analysis for non-similar analytical study of nanofluid flow and heat transfer under the influence of aligned magnetic field

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2018
The present semi-analytical investigation covers the impact of aligned magnetic field, Ohmic dissipation and viscous dissipation on a non-similar nanofluid flow over a plate with no flux condition.
