Frontiers in Energy Research, 2018 Two-stage synthesis problems simultaneously consider here-and-now decisions (e.g., optimal investment) and wait-and-see decisions (e.g., optimal operation). The optimal synthesis of energy systems reveals such a two-stage character.

Thermodynamics of the FRW universe at the event horizon in Palatini f(R) gravity
, 2018 In an accelerated expanding universe, one can expect the existence of an event horizon. It may be interesting to study the thermodynamics of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe at the event horizon.

Thermodynamics of Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi Model
, 2010 Here we consider our universe as inhomogeneous spherically symmetric Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi Model and analyze the thermodynamics of this model of the universe. The trapping horizon is calculated and is found to coincide with the apparent horizon.

Black Hole Thermodynamics and Two-Dimensional Dilaton Gravity Theory [PDF]
, 1999 We relate various black hole solutions in the near-horizon region to black hole solutions in two-dimensional dilaton gravity theories in order to argue that thermodynamics of black holes in D>=4 can be effectively described by thermodynamics of black ...

Unitary Thermodynamics from Thermodynamic Geometry [PDF]
Journal of Low Temperature Physics, 2013 Degenerate Fermi gases of atoms near a Feshbach resonance show universal thermodynamic properties, which are here calculated with the geometry of thermodynamics, and the thermodynamic curvature $R$. Unitary thermodynamics is expressed as the solution to a pair of ordinary differential equations, a "superfluid" one valid for small entropy per atom $z ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Thermocapillary central lamella recess during droplet impacts onto a heated wall
Scientific ReportsWe experimentally observe a new phenomenon, the formation of a toroidal region of lower film thickness in the center of the lamella formed during high Weber number water droplet impacts onto smooth heated walls.
