An effort is made to introduce thermodynamic and statistical thermodynamic methods into the treatment of nonphysical (e.g., social, economic, etc.) systems. Emphasis is placed on the use of the entire thermodynamic framework, not merely entropy. Entropy arises naturally, related in a simple manner to other measurables, but does not occupy a primary position in the theory. However, the maximum e...

The behavior of thermal parameters pressure (P) and thermoelastic i.e. Isothermal bulk modulus (K_T), its derivative (K'T) Thermal expansivity (α) has been analyzed for Na-majorite knorringite-majorite systems at different compressions down to a maximum value 0.3 temperature ranges from 300 K 1500 K. dependent compressibility these garnets have studied. comprehensive study thermodynamic isother...

A numerical framework has been proposed to model the interacting effects of mixture non-ideality and mass transfer on hydrodynamics of a multiphase system using CFD methods.Mass transfer during condensation and vaporization is modeled by chemical potential at the liquid-vapor interface. Species mass transfers are related to the diffusion at the interface which in turn is related to the conc...

The thermodynamic descriptions of the perovskite phase SrZrO3 and the TbBr3-KBr molten salt system were carried out using the available experimental information. Special attention was paid to the structural behavior of SrZrO3 and the decomposition of K3TbBr6 at low temperature, respectively, to illustrate how to select an appropriate thermodynamic model based on crystal structure and chemistry ...

Herein, we propose a modified version of the Wako-Saitô-Muñoz-Eaton (WSME) model. The proposed model introduces an empirical temperature parameter for the hypothetical structural units (i.e., foldons) in proteins to include site-dependent thermodynamic behavior. The thermodynamics for both our proposed model and the original WSME model were investigated. For a system with beta-hairpin topology,...

| This paper proposes three tests to determine whether a given nonlinear device noise model agrees with accepted thermodynamic principles. These tests conclude that every Gaussian noise model for any nonlinear device predicts thermodynamically impossible circuit behavior, but the shot-noise model predicts thermodynamically acceptable behavior under a constraint derived here.

isotactic poly (1-butene), ipbu-1, was synthesized by using a metallocene catalyst. the thermodynamic phase behavior of polymer–organic solvents systems is very important in every polymer application.  in this paper, the solid–liquid equilibrium of ipbu-1 with different organic solvents (1-heptyne, cyclo octane) was studied by a mathematical model. by considering the experiments temperature-mol...

The thermodynamic Bethe ansatz method is employed for the study of the integrable critical RSOS(q1, q2; q) model. The high and low temperature behavior are investigated, and the central charge of the effective conformal field theory is derived.
