Thermodynamic Equilibria and Extrema by Alexander N. Gorban,Boris M. Kaganovich,Sergey P. Filippov,Alexandre V. Keiko,Vitaly A. Shamansky,Igor A. Shirkalin Pdf

Since the creation of classical equilibrium thermodynamics in the second part of the nineteenth century by Clausius, Helmholtz, Maxwell, Gibbs, and Bolzmann, its potential has increased immeasurably due to the rapid development of numerical mathematics and computers. Now models based on Gibbs's fundamental equations allow one not only to find the point of final equilibrium in a given system, but also to examine the entire area thermodynamically attainable from a given initial point. Moreover, they are capable of finding in this area the equilibrium states (partial equilibria) of interest to a researcher for their extreme values of a considered parameter such as the concentration of useful or harmful products of a chemical process. In doing so, it appears possible to take into consideration in a strict thermodynamic form (with no use of the time variable) the limitations posed by chemical reaction rates and irreversible processes of mass, energy, and impulse transfer.

Convex Optimization by Stephen P. Boyd,Lieven Vandenberghe Pdf

Convex optimization problems arise frequently in many different fields. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject, and shows in detail how such problems can be solved numerically with great efficiency. The book begins with the basic elements of convex sets and functions, and then describes various classes of convex optimization problems. Duality and approximation techniques are then covered, as are statistical estimation techniques. Various geometrical problems are then presented, and there is detailed discussion of unconstrained and constrained minimization problems, and interior-point methods. The focus of the book is on recognizing convex optimization problems and then finding the most appropriate technique for solving them. It contains many worked examples and homework exercises and will appeal to students, researchers and practitioners in fields such as engineering, computer science, mathematics, statistics, finance and economics.

Green Energy and Environment by Eng Hwa Yap,Andrew Huey Ping Tan Pdf

Energy is a vital element in sustaining our modern society but the future of energy is volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous; especially when facing a continuous drive to ensure a sustained and equitable access as well as mounting pressures to reduce its emissions. Traditional approaches in developing energy technologies have always been in isolation with distinct and unique contexts. However, we cannot afford to work in silos any longer. Future energy systems and their relationship with the society and the environment will have to be conceived, designed, developed, commissioned, and operated alongside and within contemporary geo-political, ethical, and socio-economic contexts. This has posed an unprecedented volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), where systemic and holistic approaches are often warranted. This book aims to focus on the VUCA of addressing the future of energy and environment by considering contemporary issues and insights from diverse contexts, viewed as a system, and anchored upon emerging and smart energy technologies.
