Advances and Emerging Trends in Classical and Modern Thermodynamics.
Abstract: Thermodynamics, as a foundational discipline of physical science, has continually evolved from its classical roots to modern, interdisciplinary applications. Classical thermodynamics established the laws governing energy, entropy, and equilibrium, providing the framework for analyzing heat engines, refrigeration cycles, and chemical processes. Recent advances have expanded these principles into new domains, integrating statistical mechanics, quantum theory, and non‑equilibrium systems. Emerging trends highlight the role of thermodynamics in nanoscale and quantum technologies, …

Mechanistic Insights into Solvent-Controlled Stepwise and Concerted Cycloadditions of the Propadienyl Cation with Oxoamides: A DFT Study
Abstract: AbstractOxazoles constitute an important class of heterocycles with widespread applications in medicinal chemistry and materials science, yet the mechanistic features governing their formation via cationic cycloaddition reactions remain incompletely understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) investigation into the reaction between the propadienyl cation and oxoamides as a model system for oxazole ring formation. Using the CAM-B3LYP/6–31+G(d,p) level of theory, we systematically compare gas-phase reactivity …

Techno-Economic Analysis of Packed Bed Type Thermal Batteries for Surplus Renewable Energy Storage
Abstract: Low carbon electricity from renewables will form the bed rock of the energy transition necessary for climate change mitigation. However, variable renewable generators suffer from intermittency and variability – there can be large surplus power available at times which cannot be dispatched to the grid. At many times, the practice is to curtail surplus renewable output, which is wasteful and not economic. There are also phases when generation is not …

A Survey on Hydrogen Storage System using Alloys
Abstract: The transition to a carbon-neutral energy landscape hinges on the ability to store hydrogen safely, densely, and reversibly. While high-pressure tanks and cryogenic vessels dominate today’s infrastructure, solid-state storage in metallic alloys offers a compelling alternative by marrying high gravimetric capacity with intrinsic safety. This work presents a systematic investigation of a family of reversible hydrogen-absorbing alloys—principally Mg-based intermetallics (Mg₂Ni, Mg-Fe-Mn) and Ti-V-based Laves phases (TiFe, Ti₁₋ₓMnₓV₂) – engineered through …

Abstract: A bath containing ZnSO4.7H2O, NiSO4.7H2O, thiamine hydrochloride (THC) and citric acid (CA) has been proposed. Bright Zn–Ni alloy coatings were developed galvanostatically onto mild steel (MS) and their corrosion resistance and other physical properties were studied. THC was found to improve the brightness and homogeneity of the deposit. The dependency of bath composition, current density (c.d.), pH and temperature, agitation on wt.% Ni were tested. Deposition was carried out under …

Advanced Magnesium-Based Metallic GlassComposites for Biomedical Implant Applications: AMachine-Learning-Informed Approach
Abstract: Magnesium-based bulk metallic glasses (Mg-BMGs) combine strength, low density, and tunable degradability. Their amorphous matrix has a small plastic process zone. This zone is only about 4 μm wide. A small process zone keeps most glasses brittle. Adding a second phase is the best fix. This chapter extends Mg-BMGs to true composites. We call these Mg-based bulk metallic glass composites, or Mg- BMGCs. The chapter covers matrix engineering and interfacial …
