Mesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Autonomous microsystems, such as biomolecules, molecular motors, nanomotors, and active particles, are functionally dependent on nanoscale energy conversion mechanisms.

Toward Knowledge‐Based Workflows: A Semantic Approach to Atomistic Simulations for Mechanical and Thermodynamic Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Knowledge‐based atomistic workflows are presented for mechanical and thermodynamic properties. By coupling modular simulations with ontology‐aligned metadata and provenance, Fe case studies on elastic behavior, defects, thermal properties, and Hall–Petch strengthening reveal how FAIR, queryable, and reusable simulation data can be generated. Mechanical

The non-equilibrium thermodynamics of active suspensions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
Active suspensions composed of self-propelled colloidal particles are considered. The propulsion of these micrometric particles is generated by chemical reactions occurring by heterogeneous catalysis at their surface and by diffusiophoresis coupling the ...

Why so many "Schools" of Thermodynamics?

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2008
A classification representing some main branches of phenomenological non-equilibrium thermodynamics is discussed. Differences and similarities of these selected branches are explained.

Multiscale modeling of electrolytes in porous electrode: From equilibrium structure to non-equilibrium transport

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2020
Understanding the mechanisms and properties of various transport processes in the electrolyte, porous electrode, and at the interface between electrode and electrolyte plays a crucial role in guiding the improvement of electrolytes, materials and ...

Electrochemical Behavior of Flame‐Sprayed Sc‐Doped AlCoCrFeMo High‐Entropy Alloy Coatings in 3.5% Sodium Chloride Solution

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Scandium (Sc)‐doped AlCoCrFeMo HEA coatings are fabricated via flame spraying with 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt% Sc additions. Among these, the HEA‐Sc0.3 coating exhibits the highest corrosion resistance, indicated by a more positive corrosion potential and lower current density.

Mechanical Proof of the Second Law of Thermodynamics Based on Volume Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In a previous work (M. Campisi. Stud. Hist. Phil. M. P. 36 (2005) 275-290) we have addressed the mechanical foundations of equilibrium thermodynamics on the basis of the Generalized Helmholtz Theorem.

Cathodic Cage Plasma Deposition of Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se Coatings on Poly(methyl Methacrylate)

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se coatings are deposited on PMMA by a modified cathodic cage plasma process, enabling low‐temperature deposition on polymer substrates. A transition from discontinuous to compact morphology is observed with temperature, with optimal properties at 200°C, where improved CuFeSe2‐type bonding, lowest sheet resistance, and favorable ...

Entropy, Extropy and the Physical Driver of Irreversibility [PDF]

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems, 2012
We point out that the fundamental irreversibility of Nature requires the introduction of a suitable measure for the distance from equilibrium. We show that entropy, which is widely held to be such a measure, suffers from the problem that it does not have

Exploitation of a special-relativistic entropy identity for one component of a multi-component system

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2019
Non-equilibrium and equilibrium thermodynamics of an interacting component of a special-relativistic multi-component system is discussed by using an entropy identity. The special case of the corresponding free component is considered.
