Quantum Thermodynamics with Degenerate Eigenstate Coherences

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
We establish quantum thermodynamics for open quantum systems weakly coupled to their reservoirs when the system exhibits degeneracies. The first and second law of thermodynamics are derived, as well as a finite-time fluctuation theorem for mechanical ...

Discretization of continuum physics – a comparison of numerical methods from a physical point of view; pp. 145–154 [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2008
For numerical calculations in continuum physics partial differential equations and the space-time are discretized. This can be done in different ways. Common approaches are finite difference methods and finite element methods, more rarely finite volume ...

Generalized Thermodynamic Optimization for Iron and Steel Production Processes: Theoretical Exploration and Application Cases

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
Combining modern thermodynamics theory branches, including finite time thermodynamics or entropy generation minimization, constructal theory and entransy theory, with metallurgical process engineering, this paper provides a new exploration on generalized

Virial statistical description of non-extensive hierarchical systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In a first part the scope of classical thermodynamics and statistical mechanics is discussed in the broader context of formal dynamical systems, including computer programmes. In this context classical thermodynamics appears as a particular theory suited

Thermodynamics and fluctuations in finite-time quantum heat engines under reservoir squeezing

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
We investigate the thermodynamics and fluctuations of a finite-time quantum Otto engine alter- natively driven by a hot-squeezed and a cold thermal reservoir.

Finite time thermodynamics analysis and research of pulsating heat pipe cold storage device

open access: yesEnergy Storage and Saving, 2022
Phase change energy storage technology can effectively solve the energy mismatch in space and time. There are many disadvantages of phase change materials (PCMs), such as high supercooling, phase separation and poor heat transfer performance.

Numerical tests of the electroweak phase transition and thermodynamics of the electroweak plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The finite temperature phase transition in the SU(2) Higgs model at a Higgs boson mass $M_H \simeq 34$ GeV is studied in numerical simulations on four-dimensional lattices with time-like extensions up to $L_t=5$.

Finite-time Landauer principle beyond weak coupling [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2023
Landauer's principle gives a fundamental limit to the thermodynamic cost of erasing information. Its saturation requires a reversible isothermal process, and hence infinite time.

A Dynamic Approach to the Thermodynamics of Superdiffusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We address the problem of relating thermodynamics to mechanics in the case of microscopic dynamics without a finite time scale. The solution is obtained by expressing the Tsallis entropic index q as a function of the Levy index alpha, and using dynamical
