U-Pb zircon date from the Neoproterozoic Ghaub Formation, Namibia: Constraints on Marinoan glaciation

TL;DR: In this paper, U-Pb zircon geochronology of an ash layer constrains the deposition of the glaciomarine sediments to 635.5 ± 1.2 Ma, providing an age for what has been described as a "Marinoan-type" glaciation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two or four Neoproterozoic glaciations

TL;DR: In this article, a cladistic analysis of geologic and geochemical characters of 12 Neoproterozoic glacial deposits identifies two distinct groups that are found in a consistent stratigraphic order whenever two glacial units occur within a single succession.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal paths for thermodynamic systems: The ideal diesel cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the method of optimal control theory to determine the optimal piston trajectory for successively less idealized models of the Otto cycle, and the resulting increases in efficiency are of the order of 10%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal process paths for endoreversible systems

TL;DR: This review is dedicated to the dynamical investigation of endoreversible systems and the necessary mathematical tools to determine optimal process paths for such systems, including internal combustion engines and by a number of further selected applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
