Scaling Analysis of Time-Reversal Asymmetries in Fully Developed Turbulence

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2023
In fully developed turbulence, there is a flux of energy from large to small scales in the inertial range until the dissipation at small scales. It is associated with irreversibility, i.e., a breaking of the time reversal symmetry.

Coherent structures at the origin of time irreversibility in wall turbulence

open access: yesCommunications Physics, 2023
Time irreversibility is a distinctive feature of non-equilibrium phenomena such as turbulent flows, where irreversibility is mainly associated with an energy cascade process.

The “footprints” of irreversibility [PDF]

open access: yesEPL (Europhysics Letters), 2008
We reformulate the result for the entropy production given in Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 080602 (2007) in terms of the relative entropy of microscopic trajectories. By a combination with the Crook's theorem, we identify the path variables that are sufficient to fully identify irreversibility.

Exergetic Assessment of Waste Gas to Energy in a Novel Integrated NGL Recovery and Power Generation Plant

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Natural gas processing, as one of the major energy sources, has become a focal point in boosting the energy value chain by processing high commercial value products such as natural gas liquids (NGL) and electricity generation.

Randomness and Irreversiblity in Quantum Mechanics: A Worked Example for a Statistical Theory

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
The randomness of some irreversible quantum phenomena is a central question because irreversible phenomena break quantum coherence and thus yield an irreversible loss of information.

Generalized Landauer Bound for Information Processing: Proof and Applications

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
A generalized form of Landauer’s bound on the dissipative cost of classical information processing in quantum-mechanical systems is proved using a new approach.

Irreversibility as thermodynamic time

open access: yesOpen Physics, 2021
In Newtonian mechanics, time and space are perceived as absolute entities. In Einstein’s relativity theory, time is frame dependent. Time is also affected by gravitational field and as the field varies in space, time also varies throughout space.

The Origins of Irreversibility [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ecodynamics, 2007
This article is a theoretical contribution dedicated to Boltzmann's theorem revisited in light of the studies of Mario Ageno, late professor of Physics at the University of Rome (La Sapienza), who showed an interesting new point of view on probability and uncertainty in his book The Origins of Irreversibility.

Interpretation of Entropy Calculations in Energy Conversion Systems

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Often, second law-based studies present merely entropy calculations without demonstrating how and whether such calculations may be beneficial. Entropy generation is commonly viewed as lost work or sometimes a source of thermodynamic losses.
