A note on Gibbs paradox

open access: yes, 2013
We show in this note that Gibbs paradox arises not due to application of thermodynamic principles, whether classical or statistical or even quantum mechanical, but due to incorrect application of mathematics to the process of mixing of ideal gases.

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Weight Loss: A Critical Review of Mechanisms

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT GLP‐1 receptor agonist medications have the potential to promote marked weight loss, but maximal and sustained benefit may be compromised by poor compliance and cessation of use. Development of next‐generation medications that address current obstacles to effective use and development of effective adjunct treatments will benefit from better ...

When Business Breaks the Rules: The Value of a Criminology‐Informed “Organizational” Perspective for the Regulation of White‐Collar and Corporate Crimes

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article argues that if the aspiration is to enhance regulatory and governance responses to white‐collar and corporate crimes, consideration of the organization of these offending behaviors must be central to the scholarly, practice, and policy discussion.

Thermodynamic resolution of Gibbs paradox

open access: yes, 2013
It is shown that the Gibbs paradox is actually paralogism, viz. an erroneous statement sounding credible due to the statistic-mechanical interpretation of entropy as a measure of "any and all" irreversibility. As an alternative, the thermodynamic theory of irreversible mixing processes are offered.

Competing Under Oath: Can Honesty Pledges Reduce Cheating in Competitive Environments?

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People frequently compete with one another for awards, benefits, contracts, positions, or roles. One of the regulatory challenges in these contexts lies in preventing people from making dishonest claims to win such competitions. Honesty pledges, asking people to commit to ethical behavior ex ante, have been found to reduce cheating under non ...

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming

open access: yesTijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

The Second Gibbs Paradox

open access: yes
In his Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances Gibbs seems to suggest that the chemical potential of a crystal nucleus need not be equal to that of the coexisting fluid. In the field, Gibbs's statement has been something of a hot potato. I argue that a consistent treatment of point defects in the critical nucleus is essential for clarifying the meaning

Attitudes, Beliefs, and Clinical Decision‐Making Regarding Low Back Pain: A Cross‐Sectional Study of Pakistani Medical Practitioners, Physiotherapists, and Exercise Professionals

open access: yesMusculoskeletal Care, Volume 24, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Low back pain (LBP) is a leading global cause of disability, particularly burdensome in LMICs like Pakistan, where biomedical approaches remain dominant in clinical care. This study examined how healthcare professionals' (HCPs) beliefs, attitudes, and confidence influence clinical decision‐making for LBP.

The theory of the double preparation: discerned and indiscerned particles

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we propose a deterministic and realistic quantum mechanics interpretation which may correspond to Louis de Broglie's "double solution theory".
