Fluctuation theorem for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas with momentum transfer [PDF]
We derive an exact expression for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas driven by momentum transfer in addition to energy and particle flux. Following the treatment in Phys. Rev. E Vol. 74, 021117 (2006), we construct a master equation formulation of the process and explicitly verify the thermodynamic fluctuation theorem, thereby directly ...

Non-stationary thermophysical characterization of exfoliated graphite with carbon nanotubes composites [PDF]
The sheet samples of thermally exfoliated graphite (TEG) carbon nanotubes (CNT) composites (TEG CNT cs) were obtained by persulphate oxidation using chemical (CO) and electrochemical (anode) oxidation (ECAO). Electron microscopy reveals multi layered structures of few layer graphene nanosheets with folded and tubular like fragments.Electron microscopy ...

Deep Learning for Endoscopic Classification of Adenoid Hypertrophy
ABSTRACT Objective Endoscopy is a convenient and widely used method to evaluate adenoid size, but the subjectivity of its image diagnosis can result in over‐ or underestimation. To create a new assessment strategy for adenoid hypertrophy, we developed a reliable method for automated classification using a deep learning algorithm with nasal endoscopic ...
