Optimization as a Thermodynamic System
, 2010 As we know that nature made the things optimized in all point of views, also it is supposed that nature works under some evolutionary process. Since there was no such Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) method having strong mathematical background, that’s why these are not much reliable.

, 2023 The performance of high temperature heat pumps (HTHPs) is highly dependent on the efficiency of its main components, which need to be optimally matched especially in closed cycles.

Robust multi-disciplinary design and optimisation of a reusable launch vehicle [PDF]
, 2014 For various technical reasons, no fully reusable launch vehicle has ever been successfully constructed or operated. Nonetheless, a range of reusable hypersonic vehicles is currently being considered as a viable alternative to the expensive but more ...

Thermodynamic Metrics and Optimal Paths
Physical Review Letters, 2012 A fundamental problem in modern thermodynamics is how a molecular-scale machine performs useful work, while operating away from thermal equilibrium without excessive dissipation. To this end, we derive a friction tensor that induces a Riemannian manifold on the space of thermodynamic states.

Thermodynamics of Global Optimization
Physical Review Letters, 1998 Theoretical design of global optimization algorithms can profitably utilize recent statistical mechanical treatments of potential energy surfaces (PES's). Here we analyze a particular method to explain its success in locating global minima on surfaces with a multiple-funnel structure, where trapping in local minima with different morphologies is ...

Thermodynamic Limits and Optimality of Microbial Growth [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 Understanding microbial growth with the use of mathematical models has a long history that dates back to the pioneering work of Jacques Monod in the 1940s. Monod’s famous growth law expressed microbial growth rate as a simple function of the limiting nutrient concentration.

The Mechanistic Integration and Thermodynamic Optimality of a Nanomotor [PDF]
Symmetry, 2022 The performance of artificial nanomotors is still far behind nature-made biomolecular motors. A mechanistic disparity between the two categories exists: artificial motors often rely on a single mechanism to rectify directional motion, but biomotors integrate multiple mechanisms for better performance.
