Accounting for the real material behavior in topology optimization is essential since it determines final optimal structure. For considering a plastic behavior, we propose surrogate plasticity model within thermodynamic to handle this complex resource-efficient manner. We physically correct strains analogously classic models but without path-dependence and hysteresis during course of optimizati...

We consider two bottlenecks in quantum computing: limited memory size and noise caused by heat dissipation. Trying to optimize both, we investigate ``on-the-go erasure'' of registers that are no longer needed for a given algorithm: freeing up auxiliary qubits as they stop being useful would facilitate the parallelization computations. study minimal thermodynamic cost erasure these scenarios, ap...

The ingenious combination of lactate and diethylenetriamine-N,N,N’,N”,N”pentaacetic acid (DTPA) as an aqueous actinide-complexing medium forms the basis of the successful separation of americium and curium from lanthanides known as the TALSPEAK process. While numerous reports in the prior literature have focused on the optimization of this solvent extraction system, considerably less attention ...

First-principles modeling, experimental, and thermodynamic methodologies were integrated to facilitate a fundamentally guided investigation of quaternary complex hydride compounds within the bialkali Na-Li-Al-H hydrogen storage system. The integrated approach has broad utility for the discovery, understanding, and optimization of solid-state chemical systems. Density functional theory ground-st...

The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is commonly accepted as a viable technology to convert from low medium temperature geothermal energy into electrical energy. In practice, the reference for converting electricity subcritical simple ORC system. Over time, plants with more complex configurations (architectures) have been developed. open literature, large number of advanced architectures or introduc...

Abstract This study evaluates the potential of local fish waste oil as a feedstock for biodiesel via supercritical methanol transesterification (SCMT). Hexane was used cosolvent and reaction carried out in continuous reactor under conditions. The response surface methodology (RSM) method applied to analyse effect four independent variables, including weight ratio fish-waste (W), temperature (T)...
