We generalize the optimized effective potential (OEP) formalism in quantum electrodynamical density functional theory (QEDFT) to case of continuous distribution photon modes, and study its applicability dissipative dynamics electron systems interacting with photons lossy cavities. Specifically, we test whether this technique is capable capturing features electron-photon interaction related spon...

Purpose To encourage more just open educational practices, the purpose of this paper is to describe Jose Medina’s theory epistemic justice and develop a framework applying conception OEP through learning design. The authors hope will help researchers practitioners equitable experiences in contexts. Design/methodology/approach This conceptual design-oriented. seeks draw relationships between Jos...

In the current work, different methods for optimization of turbine blade internal cooling are investigated, to achieve higher cyclic efficiency and output power for a typical gas turbine. A simple two-dimensional model of C3X blade is simulated and validated with available experimental data. The optimization process is performed on this model with two different methods. The first method is ...

Industrial activity periodically experiences breakthrough innovations in energy efficiency, but the estimated impacts of these on aggregate use are highly varied. We develop a general equilibrium model to show this variation is part determined by structure economy’s input–output network. Our results industrial efficiency improvements affect through adjustments factor and commodity markets, proc...
