The growth of maize seedlings as function of free energy and redox potential [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2010
The difference in the growth of maize seedlings originating from seeds injured by accelerated ageing, as well as those altered by restoring with low 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) concentrations was examined, from the point of view of free ...

The Active Inference Approach to Ecological Perception: General Information Dynamics for Natural and Artificial Embodied Cognition

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2018
The emerging neurocomputational vision of humans as embodied, ecologically embedded, social agents—who shape and are shaped by their environment—offers a golden opportunity to revisit and revise ideas about the physical and information-theoretic ...

Enhanced removal of nano-oil droplets utilizing polysilicate aluminum ferric (PSAF): Leveraging bridging and non-polar surface advantages

Water Science and Technology
Hydraulic oil leaks during mechanical maintenance, resulting in flushing wastewater contaminated with dispersed nano-oil droplets. In this study, 75 mg L−1 of polysilicate aluminum ferric (PSAF) was stirred at 350 rpm and the optimal chemical oxygen ...

Effect of the Spatially-Varied Electron Mean Free Path on Vortex Matter in a Superconducting Pb Island Grown on Si (111)

Condensed Matter, 2023
In this work we report theoretical calculations of a superconducting island in a strong vortex confinement regime. The obtained results reveal the evolution of the superconducting condensate with an applied magnetic field, depending on the spatial ...

Minimum free-energy path of homogenous nucleation from the phase-field equation

, 2009
The minimum free-energy path (MFEP) is the most probable route of the nucleation process on the multidimensional free-energy surface. In this study, the phase-field equation is used as a mathematical tool to deduce the minimum free-energy path (MFEP) of ...

The Analytical Theory of Water Activity in the Paddy Rice Drying Process

Agronomy
Drying involves the evaporation of moisture, accompanied by simultaneous heat transfer, mass transfer, and momentum transfer. While the diffusion law is considered an applicable model for explaining the drying phenomenon, the actual drying process cannot

Initial Steps in the Reaction of H₂O₂ with Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ Ions: Inconsistency in the Free Radical Theory

Reactions, 2023
Consideration of the changes in free energy shows that the assumed initial steps in reactions of H2O2 with Fe2+ and Fe3+ in the free radical theory are not consistent.

Free Energy of a Heavy Quark-Antiquark Pair in a Thermal Medium from AdS/CFT

, 2018
We study the free energy of a heavy quark-antiquark pair in a thermal medium using the AdS/CFT correspondence. We point out that a commonly used prescription for calculating this quantity leads to a temperature dependence in conflict with general ...

Analytic Free-Energy Expression for the 2D-Ising Model and Perspectives for Battery Modeling

Batteries, 2023
Although originally developed to describe the magnetic behavior of matter, the Ising model represents one of the most widely used physical models, with applications in almost all scientific areas.

Free Energy Approximations for CSMA networks

, 2017
In this paper we study how to estimate the back-off rates in an idealized CSMA network consisting of $n$ links to achieve a given throughput vector using free energy approximations.
