Thermodynamics and Legendre Duality in Optimal Networks
Amilcare Porporato, Shashank Kumar Anand, Salvatore Calabrese +2
Optimality principles in nonequilibrium transport networks are linked to a thermodynamic formalism based on generalized transport potentials endowed with Legendre duality and relat…
Thermodynamic Langevin Equations
Amilcare Porporato, Salvatore Calabrese, Lamberto Rondoni
The physical significance of the stochastic processes associated to the generalized Gibbs ensembles is scrutinized here with special attention to the thermodynamic fluctuations of…
Nonlinearities of Penman and Penman-Monteith Equations across Multiple Timescales
Yizhi Han, Salvatore Calabrese, Huihua Du +1
The nonlinear Penman and Penman-Monteith equations, widely used for estimating surface evapotranspiration at regional and global scales, were derived from turbulent transport of he…
Dynamic dependence of nonequilibrium work limits the validity of the Jarzynski Equality
Amilcare Porporato, Salvatore Calabrese
The Jarzynski equality (JE) is analyzed in regard to its validity for both quasi-static transformations in the thermodynamic limit and Hamiltonian evolutions of the work protocol.…
Thermodynamics of fluctuations in small systems interacting with the environment
Salvatore Calabrese, Lamberto Rondoni, Amilcare Porporato
A few decades after Hill's work on nano-thermodynamics, the development of a thermodynamic framework, to account consistently for the fluctuations of small systems due to their int…
Energy Constraints for Climate Models from Hydrologic Partitioning
Jun Yin, Salvatore Calabrese, Edoardo Daly +1
It is well known that evaporative cooling of Earth's surface water reduces the amount of radiation that goes into sensible heat, namely the portion of radiation that produces highe…
Thermodynamic relations among isotropic material properties in conditions of plane shear stress
Amilcare Porporato, Salvatore Calabrese, Tomasz Hueckel
We present new general relationships among the material properties of an isotropic material kept in homogeneous stress conditions with hydrostatic pressure and plane shear. The der…
Origin of Negative Temperatures in Systems Interacting with External Fields
Salvatore Calabrese, Amilcare Porporato
The controversial existence of negative temperatures has stirred interesting debates that have reached the foundations of thermodynamics, including questions on the second law, the…
Linking age, survival and transit time distributions
Salvatore Calabrese, Amilcare Porporato
Although the concepts of age, survival and transit time have been widely used in many fields, including population dynamics, chemical engineering, and hydrology, a comprehensive ma…
