Bell’s Theorem, Many Worlds and Backwards-Time Physics: Not Just a Matter of Interpretation
TL;DR: The backwards-time theory of physics (BTP) as discussed by the authors allows two major variations, a many-worlds version and a neoclassical version based on Partial Differential Equations (PDE) in the spirit of Einstein.

Stability principles for lamellar eutectoid(IC) reactions
J. S. Kirkaldy,R.C. Sharma +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the inflection point of the velocity versus spacing curve (d 2 v ds 2 = 0 ) is stable with respect to both infinitesimal (lamellar fault) and finite (halved-spacing) perturbations.

Finite Deformations and Internal Forces in Elastic-Plastic Crystals: Interpretations From Nonlinear Elasticity and Anharmonic Lattice Statics
TL;DR: In this paper, an element of crystalline material with spatially uniform properties and containing defects such as dislocation lines and loops is considered, and the average deformation gradient for this element is decomposed multiplicatively into terms accounting for effects of dislocation flux, recoverable elastic stretch and rotation, and residual elastic deformation associated with self-equilibrating internal forces induced by defects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analyzing the energy performance of manufacturing across levels using the end-use matrix
TL;DR: An innovative accounting framework: the energy end-use matrix, which integrates quantitative assessments of energy use of the various constituent compartments of socio-economic systems and contributes to a multi-criteria characterization of national or sectoral energy performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamics of an ecosystem interpreted as a hierarchy of embedded systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple ecosystem model consisting of an aquatic food chain with recycling via a bacterial/detrital complex is illustrated using a simple thermodynamic model. But the model is not suitable for the analysis of complex ecosystems.
