The problem of equilibrium processes in thermodynamics [PDF]

Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part B: Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics, 2018
Abstract It is well-known that the invocation of ‘equilibrium processes’ in thermodynamics is oxymoronic. However, their prevalence and utility, particularly in elementary accounts, presents a problem. We consider a way in which their role can be played by sets of sequences of processes demarcated by curves carrying the property of accessibility.

Approximations of Equilibrium Problems

SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2012
In this paper we study the scalar equilibrium problem (EP). We employ variational convergences of bifunctions (lopsided convergence in the maxinf framework, hypo-convergence, and continuous convergence) to study this problem by means of an approximation method. This method allows us to obtain not only existence but also stability results.

High‐Performance Low‐Emissivity Paints Enabled by N‐Doped Poly(benzodifurandione) (n‐PBDF) for Energy‐Efficient Buildings

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a scalable and colored low‐emissivity (low‐e) paint achieved by spraying an ultrathin n‐doped poly(benzodifurandione) (n‐PBDF) coating onto various colored substrates. The low‐e paint enhances thermal regulation by reducing mid‐infrared thermal emissivity to 0.19, thereby stabilizing indoor temperatures across diverse climates ...

Print‐and‐Plate Architected Electrodes for Electrochemical Transformations Under Flow

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Typical flow cell electrodes are composed of stochastic porous carbon, limiting understanding of electrode structure‐performance relationships. This work describes an approach, termed “print‐and‐plate,” to prepare porous electrodes by direct ink writing followed by conformal metal coating.
