Renormalization Group Equation for Tsallis Statistics by Airton Deppman

“…A system with a fractal structure in its energy-momentum space, named thermofractal, was shown to be described thermodynamically by the nonextensive statistics. Due to the many common features between thermofractals and Hagedorn’s fireballs, this system offers the possibility of investigating the origins of nonextensivity in hadronic physics and in QCD. …”

Tests of thermal macroeconomic theory on simulated microeconomies by Yihang Luo, R S MacKay, Nick Chater

“…The theory aims to apply the mathematical structure of classical thermodynamics, including analogues of temperature and entropy, to predict aspects of the aggregate behaviour of populations of economic agents without analysing their detailed interactions. …”

Evolution of interior entropy of a loop quantum-corrected black hole pierced by a cosmic string by Wei Zhang

“…We find that the present cosmic string can influence the evolution relation between these two types of entropy under black hole evaporation and the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied for the total variation of these two types of entropy.…”

On the square-root approximation finite volume scheme for nonlinear drift-diffusion equations by Cancès, Clément, Venel, Juliette

“…We show that the scheme admits a unique discrete solution, that the natural bounds on the solution are preserved, and that it encodes the second principle of thermodynamics in the sense that some free energy is dissipated along time. …”

“This is not science. This is storytelling:” The Poetics of Science in Arcadia by Liliane Campos

“…After using catastrophe theory and quantum mechanics in his earlier texts Professional Foul and Hapgood, Stoppard borrows some of Arcadia’s key concepts from thermodynamics and chaos theory. This article explores the strong epistemological continuity of Stoppard’s references to science, which provide him with metaphors for the systematic instability of knowledge asserted by his plays. …”

Phase Characterization of Cucumber Growth: A Chemical Gel Model by Bo Li, Xuejing Liu, Junshi Zhang

“…In order to understand the mechanism and to characterize the growth process, the cucumber is modeled as a hydrogel in swelling and its development is studied in both preharvest and postharvest stages. Based on thermodynamics, constitutive equations, incorporating biological quantities, are established. …”

Rayleigh-Benard convection in a viscoelastic fluid-filled high-porosity medium with nonuniform basic temperature gradient by Pradeep G. Siddheshwar, C. V. Sri Krishna

“…The eigenvalue is obtained for free-free, free-rigid, and rigid-rigid boundary combinations with isothermal temperature conditions. Thermodynamics and also the present stability analysis dictates the strain retardation time to be less than the stress relaxation time for convection to set in as oscillatory motions in a high-porosity medium. …”

Pluie, vapeur et vitesse chez Turner by Muriel Adrien

“…Indeed, his impetuous manner and use of steam-generating « thermic » colours, as he called them, reflect the subjects of his pictures which conjure up the contemporary discoveries of thermodynamics. The phrase « Rain, Steam and Speed » is also reminiscent of his programme of painting or « visuality » : his rain and steam are redolent of the mystical apophatic clouds, where spareness and asceticism are the sole means of access to the blaze of representation.…”
