Irreversibility and Action of the Heat Conduction Process
Entropy, 2018 Irreversibility (that is, the “one-sidedness” of time) of a physical process can be characterized by using Lyapunov functions in the modern theory of stability.

Large fluctuations and irreversibility in nonequilibrium systems. [PDF]
, 1999 Large rare fluctuations in a nonequilibrium system are investigated theoretically and by analogue electronic experiment. It is emphasized that the optimal paths calculated via the eikonal approximation of the Fokker-Planck equation can be identified with

Persistent Bilateral [18F]THK5351 and Migrating Unilateral [18F]FDG Uptake in Anti‐LGI1 Encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Anti–leucine‐rich glioma‐inactivated 1 encephalitis (LGI1‐E) can cause persistent cognitive deficits, but the mechanisms remain unclear. A 40‐year‐old woman with LGI1‐E presented with subacute cognitive deficits and showed mild left medial temporal lobe (MTL) swelling and fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) hyperintensity on initial ...

Developing Empirical Insights into Irreversibility in Nuclear Arms Control and Disarmament
Journal for Peace and Nuclear DisarmamentThis second special issue on nuclear irreversibility shifts the focus from the conceptual to the empirical. It aims to explore how dynamics linked to irreversibility have played out in practice by examining arms control and disarmament efforts in South ...

A New Simple Method for Estimating Exergy Destruction in Heat Exchangers
Entropy, 2013 This paper presents an abbreviated method for estimating exergy destruction in a heat exchanger, requiring only black-box data of the exchanger’s inputs and outputs, and eliminating part of the mathematical difficulties associated with the calculations ...

Investment, uncertainty and irreversibility: evidence from belgian accounting data [PDF]
This paper investigates the effects of uncertainty on the investment behaviour using firm-level data for a sample of Belgian manufacturing firms. In general, the results confirm former analysis at the aggregate level, stating that uncertainty does matter

Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of Inebilizumab Versus Rituximab in AQP4‐IgG‐Positive NMOSD
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Rituximab (anti‐CD20, RTX) and inebilizumab (anti‐CD19, INE) represent B‐cell‐depleting therapies used for aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive (AQP4‐IgG+) neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD); however, direct comparative evidence remains limited.

Second-Law Analysis to Improve the Energy Efficiency of Screw Liquid Chillers
Entropy, 2010 This work applies the second-law analysis of thermodynamics to quantify the exergy destruction of the components of screw liquid chiller, and to identify the potential for each component to contribute to improve the overall energy efficiency of the ...
