Mathematical theory of evolution of loaded solids and media
TL;DR: In this paper, an evolutionary approach is proposed to describe the deformation response of loaded solids and media, which is based on the concepts of nonlinear dynamics, and it is shown that by varying only the correlation between positive and negative feedbacks, the response of the loaded medium varies from the typical plastic flow to brittle failure.

A thermodynamically consistent model for the thixotropic behavior of concentrated star polymer suspensions
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuum rheological model for concentrated multi-arm star polymers is proposed, which is based on a Johnson-Segalman viscoelastic constitutive equation with a variable non-affine parameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Membrane Transport
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized treatise of nonequilibrium thermodynamic analysis is given for all different membrane processes including gas permeation, pervaporation, dialysis, reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, microfiltration and electrodialysis.

Interrelationships between Water and cellular metabolism in Artemia cysts. VIII Sorption isotherms and derived thermodynamic quantities.
TL;DR: All of the examined hydration properties of the cysts have been shown to be due chiefly to the cellular component, and not the acellular shell, and analysis of the data by the Bradley equation has shown that the hydration behavior of the shell obeys this relationship, whereas that of the Cellular component does not.

Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian finite element method for curved and deforming surfaces: I. General theory and application to fluid interfaces
TL;DR: An arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) finite element method for arbitrarily curved and deforming two-dimensional materials and interfaces is presented and a new physical insight is obtained by applying the ALE developments to cylindrical fluid films.
