Gravitation and Thermodynamics [PDF]
Nature, 1917 DR. TODD (NATURE, March 1) suggests that when one gravitative mass approaches another it acquires heat. This might occur when, as is usually (but not always) the case, the body moves up the gradient of potential; for then the energy of field displaced by the body would increase.

Thermodynamic potentials and thermodynamic relations in nonextensive thermodynamics [PDF]
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2011 The generalized Gibbs free energy and enthalpy is derived in the framework of nonextensive thermodynamics by using the so-called physical temperature and the physical pressure. Some thermodynamical relations are studied by considering the difference between the physical temperature and the inverse of Lagrange multiplier.

Irradiance characteristic of a small-scale solar simulator for testing thermal collectors [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 This paper describes the development of a small-scale solar simulator for research and educational purposes. The main goal is to provide a uniform and stable distribution of irradiation from a set of four floodlight halogen lamps, over a targeted area of

Air entrapment and bubble formation during droplet impact onto a single cubic pillar
Scientific Reports, 2021 We study the vertical impact of a droplet onto a cubic pillar of comparable size placed on a flat surface, by means of numerical simulations and experiments.

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2021 National energy models provide decarbonization strategies. Most national energy models focus on costs and greenhouse gas emissions only. However, this focus carries the risk that burdens shift to other environmental impacts.

Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2023 We investigate the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of pure decoherence. In a pure decoherence process, the system Hamiltonian is a constant of motion and there is no direct energy exchange between the system and its surroundings. Nevertheless, the environment’s energy is not generally conserved and in this work we show that this leads to non-trivial ...
