Dust removal characteristics of a supersonic antigravity siphon atomization nozzle

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2020
To improve the trapping efficiency of respiratory dust by aerodynamic atomization, reduce the energy consumption and the requirements for the working conditions of nozzles and maintain the health and safety of workers, a comparative experiment evaluating

Comparing Charging Management Strategies for a Charging Station in a Parking Area in North Italy

Future Transportation, 2023
Via the analysis of a set of parking and journey information for vehicles traveling to the parking site at the University of Brescia (Italy), we evaluated the possibility of managing the electric recharging of these vehicles, which are hypothesized to be

Analytical Thermodynamics

Journal of Elasticity, 2023
This paper proposes a theory that bridges classical analytical mechanics and nonequilibrium thermodynamics. Its intent is to derive the evolution equations of a system from a stationarity principle for a suitably augmented Lagrangian action. This aim is attained for homogeneous systems, described by a finite number of state variables depending on time ...

Thermodynamic matrix exponentials and thermodynamic parallelism

Physical Review Research
Thermodynamic computing exploits fluctuations and dissipation in physical systems to efficiently solve various mathematical problems. It was recently shown that certain linear algebra problems can be solved thermodynamically, leading to a speedup scaling with the matrix dimension.

The Thermodynamics of Confidentiality [PDF]

2012 IEEE 25th Computer Security Foundations Symposium, 2012
This work, of a foundational nature, establishes a connection between secure computation and the 2nd principle of thermodynamics. In particular we show that any deterministic computation, where the final state of the system is observable, must dissipate at least W K_B T ln(2).
