A fast and accurate semi-analytical method to determine the thermal response of bore fields
Enzo Zanchini, Francesco Zanchini
The design and the simulation of a borehole-heat-exchanger (BHE) field is usually performed by simplified methods that yield either an overestimation or an underestimation of the t…
New definitions of thermodynamic temperature and entropy not based on the concepts of heat and thermal reservoir
Gian Paolo Beretta, Enzo Zanchini
From a new rigorous formulation of the general axiomatic foundations of thermodynamics we derive an operational definition of entropy that responds to the emergent need in many tec…
A definition of thermodynamic entropy valid for non-equilibrium states and few-particle systems
Gian Paolo Beretta, Enzo Zanchini
From a new rigorous formulation of the general axiomatic foundations of thermodynamics we derive an operational definition of entropy that responds to the emergent need in many tec…
Recent Progress in the Definition of Thermodynamic Entropy
Enzo Zanchini, Gian Paolo Beretta
The principal methods for the definition of thermodynamic entropy are discussed with special reference to those developed by Carathéodory, the Keenan School, Lieb and Yngvason, and…
Rigorous and General Definition of Thermodynamic Entropy
Gian Paolo Beretta, Enzo Zanchini
The physical foundations of a variety of emerging technologies --- ranging from the applications of quantum entanglement in quantum information to the applications of nonequilibriu…
A rigorous definition of mass in special relativity
Enzo Zanchini, Antonio Barletta
The axiomatic definition of mass in classical mechanics, outlined by Mach in the second half of 19th century and improved by several authors, is simplified and extended to the theo…
