Modeling, Simulation, and Reconstruction of 2-Reservoir Heat-to-Power Processes in Finite-Time Thermodynamics [PDF]
, 2020 The connection between endoreversible models of Finite-Time Thermodynamics and the corresponding real running irreversible processes is investigated by introducing two concepts which complement each other: Simulation and Reconstruction.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Second law of thermodynamics and the failure of rock materials [PDF]
, 2001 The relation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to some failure and fracture theories of rock mechanics is investigated. The basic concepts are given to connect failure to the properties of material equations describing the elastic properties.

Thermodynamic holography [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractThe holographic principle states that the information about a volume of a system is encoded on the boundary surface of the volume. Holography appears in many branches of physics, such as optics, electromagnetism, many-body physics, quantum gravity and string theory. Here we show that holography is also an underlying principle in 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 ...

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

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).
