Thermal physiology in a changing thermal world [PDF]
This editorial focuses on articles submitted to the Temperature call "Thermal Physiology in a Changing Thermal World." It highlights an array of topics related to thermoregulatory and metabolic functions in adverse environments, and the complexity and adaptability of the systems to changing climatic conditions, at various levels of body organization.

The Role of Thermalizing and Non-thermalizing Walls in Phonon Heat Conduction along Thin Films [PDF]
Phonon boundary scattering is typically treated using the Fuchs-Sondheimer theory, which assumes that phonons are thermalized to the local temperature at the boundary. However, whether such a thermalization process actually occurs and its effect on thermal transport remains unclear.

Investigating the influence of conduit residues on polyurethane plates
Converting waste into a product similar to the original one or into another useful product is to save energy, protect natural resources, and bring back to the production cycle what was discarded.

Synthesis and Properties of Non-Curing Graphene Thermal Interface Materials [PDF]
Development of the next generation thermal interface materials with high thermal conductivity is important for thermal management and packaging of electronic devices. We report on the synthesis and thermal conductivity measurements of non-curing thermal paste, i.e.

Tunable Thermal Conduction in Graphane Nanoribbons [PDF]
Graphane and graphene are both two-dimensional materials but of different bonding configurations, which can result in distinct thermal conduction properties. We simulate thermal conduction in graphane nanoribbons (GANRs) using the nonequilibrium Green's function method.

Fundamentals of Thermal Expansion and Thermal Contraction
Thermal expansion is an important property of substances. Its theoretical prediction has been challenging, particularly in cases the volume decreases with temperature, i.e., thermal contraction or negative thermal expansion at high temperatures. In this paper, a new theory recently developed by the authors has been reviewed and further examined in the ...

Transformation thermal convection: Cloaking, concentrating, and camouflage [PDF]
Heat can generally transfer via thermal conduction, thermal radiation, and thermal convection. All the existing theories of transformation thermotics and optics can treat thermal conduction and thermal radiation, respectively. Unfortunately, thermal convection has never been touched in transformation theories due to the lack of a suitable theory, thus ...

Turbulent thermalization [PDF]
We study, analytically and with lattice simulations, the decay of coherent field oscillations and the subsequent thermalization of the resulting stochastic classical wave-field. The problem of reheating of the Universe after inflation constitutes our prime motivation and application of the results. We identify three different stages of these processes.

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...
