Thermodynamic irreversibility can be imposed on empirical material behaviour by using an appropriate algorithm which takes the path-dependence of the degradation process into account. This new algorithm, Algorithmically Imposed Mechanics (AIM), for algorit ...
The enthalpies of formation of the intermetallic compounds in the Ge-Ni binary system have been determined by calorimetric measurement and first-principles calculations. Based on the results obtained and information available in the literature, the phase d ...
Based on the original combination of picosecond acoustics and diamond anvils cell, recent improvements to accurately measure hypersonic sound velocities of liquids and solids under extreme conditions are described. To illustrate the capability of this tech ...
Network models have been used to study the underlying processes and principles of biological systems for decades, providing many insights into the complexity of life. Biological systems require a constant flow of free energy to drive these processes that o ...
Following the analytic approach to thermodynamics developed by Stuckelberg, we study the evolution equations of a closed thermodynamic system consisting of point particles in a fluid. We obtain a system of coupled differential equations describing the mech ...
When adsorbing guest molecules, the porous metal-organic framework MIL-53(Cr) may vary its cell parameters drastically while retaining its crystallinity. A first approach to the thermodynamic analysis of this "framework breathing" consists of comparing the ...
Thermodynamic analysis of metabolic networks has recently generated increasing interest for its ability to add constraints on metabolic network operation, and to combine metabolic fluxes and metabolite measurements in a mechanistic manner. Concepts for the ...
Detailed thermodynamic and kinetic study of the aqueous Kolbe-Schmitt synthesis of beta-resorcylic acid has been carried out in a laboratory-scale batch reactor operated under ambient pressure. The dependence of the conversion on partial pressure of carbon ...
The solid solubility of germanium in silver has been measured in the temperature range of 520 K to 913 K via measurements of density and of electrical conductivity of two near-eutectic Ag-Ge alloys. The atomic fraction of germanium in solid solution varied ...
The temperature behavior of the generation of the second acoustic harmonics induced by an electric field during the transition of a crystal to the ferroelectric state has been considered based on the thermodynamic approach in the framework of the Landau mo ...
