Transportation efficiency of hydrodynamically coupled spherical oscillators in low Reynolds number fluids
Weiwei Su, Yuki Izumida, Hiroshi Kori
Most bacteria are driven by the cilia or flagella, consisting of a long filament and a rotary molecular motor through a short flexible hook. The beating pattern of these filaments…
Synchronization approach to achieving maximum power and thermal efficiency for weakly-coupled low-temperature-differential Stirling engines
Songhao Yin, Hiroshi Kori, Yuki Izumida
Low-temperature-differential (LTD) Stirling engines are heat engines that can operate autonomously with a slight temperature difference between low-temperature heat reservoirs and…
Thermodynamic efficiency of atmospheric motion governed by Lorenz system
Zhen Li, Yuki Izumida
The Lorenz system was derived on the basis of a model of convective atmospheric motions and may serve as a paradigmatic model for considering a complex climate system. In this stud…
Non-quasistatic response coefficients and dissipated availability for macroscopic thermodynamic systems
Yuki Izumida
The characterization of finite-time thermodynamic processes is of crucial importance for extending equilibrium thermodynamics to nonequilibrium thermodynamics. The central issue is…
