This work is the result of research carried out as part of a Master's degree course, aimed at investigating, from the perspective of the pedagogical moment of initial problematization with the help of the conceptual profile of heat, how cold influences different contexts and its historical importance in technological development and in helping to establish modern societies.

An account of the concepts and intellectual structure of classical thermodynamics that reveals the subject's simplicity and coherence. Students of physics, chemistry, and engineering are taught classical thermodynamics through its methods―a “problems first” approach that neglects the subject's concepts and intellectual structure. In Thermodynamic Weirdness, Don Lemons fills this gap, offering a nonmathematical account of the ideas of classical thermodynamics in all its non-Newtonian “weirdness.” By emphasizing the ideas and their relationship to one another, Lemons reveals the simplicity and coherence of classical thermodynamics. Lemons presents concepts in an order that is both chronological and logical, mapping the rise and fall of ideas in such a way that the ideas that were abandoned illuminate the ideas that took their place. Selections from primary sources, including writings by Daniel Fahrenheit, Antoine Lavoisier, James Joule, and others, appear at the end of most chapters. Lemons covers the invention of temperature; heat as a form of motion or as a material fluid; Carnot's analysis of heat engines; William Thomson (later Lord Kelvin) and his two definitions of absolute temperature; and energy as the mechanical equivalent of heat. He explains early versions of the first and second laws of thermodynamics; entropy and the law of entropy non-decrease; the differing views of Lord Kelvin and Rudolf Clausius on the fate of the universe; the zeroth and third laws of thermodynamics; and Einstein's assessment of classical thermodynamics as “the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced will never be overthrown.”

Thermodynamic Processes 2 is devoted to the study of equilibrium between phases in the case of the four changes of physical state: fusion, boiling or vaporization, sublimation and allotropy or transition. It also includes a section that addresses energyAs relationship to the zero sum aspect of exergy and thermal cycles.

The purpose of this project was to develop a tool to model the performance of the Meyer nutating engine. A new type of internal combustion engine, this engine replaces the pistons with a nutating, or wobbling, disk. Contact between the disk and the engine walls create the chambers for compression and expansion. The disk's motion causes the volumes of these chambers to change, causing air intake, compression, expansion, and exhaust to take place.

According to the Physics Teaching Redesign Group (GREF-USP), physics has a conceptual beauty that in itself would justify its study, but this natural science is undermined when methodologies are adopted that do not consider contextualization, the natural relationship between its concepts and the reality experienced by society as a whole, and also ignore the conceptions that students have beforehand.

The work proposed is a stoichiometric equilibrium model to predict the yield of syngas and its composition in the gasification of Prosopis Juliflora in a downdraft gasifier. The deep taproots of this plant cause depletion of the water table, and hence, their removal became a necessity. It is used as firewood for household applications and therefore has great potential to be used as biomass.

Consumption of water contaminated with heavy metal ions compromise human and animal wellbeing even at permissible limits. Therefore, their removal from water is very important for the safety of consumers. Previously used conventional water treatment techniques were expensive and ineffective. Among them, adsorption has gained research interest because of its ease in design, environmentally friendly and availability of materials in large quantities, especially from agricultural wastes.

Survival of the fittest" is a tautology, because those that are "fit" are the ones that survive, but to survive, a species must be "fit". Modern evolutionary theory avoids the problem by defining fitness as reproductive success, but the complexity of life that we see today could not have evolved based on selection that favors only reproductive ability. There is nothing inherent in reproductive success alone that could result in higher forms of life.

The modern financial world is presented as a rational science, yet it is collapsing under the weight of incomprehensible debt and chronic instability. This is not a failure of policy, but the deterministic consequence of running an Archaic Monetary Architecture built on mutable political decree, not fixed scientific law.

This book discusses the thermodynamic mechanism of MQL grinding with nano-biological lubricant from the force, heat, surface integrity, and micro-morphology. It makes up the fatal defect of the lack of heat transfer capability of traditional MQL grinding.
