The introduction of liquid 3He into silica aerogel provides us a with model system in which to study the effects of disorder on the properties of a strongly correlated Fermi liquid. The transport of heat, mass and spin exhibits cross-over…
Thermal conductivities are routinely calculated in molecular dynamics simulations by keeping the boundaries at different temperatures and measuring the slope of the temperature profile in the bulk of the material, explicitly using Fourier's…
The design of catalysts with desired chemical and thermal properties is viewed as a grand challenge for scientists and engineers. For operation at high temperatures, stability against structural transformations is a key requirement.…
Thermal conductivity ($\kappa$) of mantle minerals is a fundamental property in geodynamic modeling. It controls the style of mantle convection and the time scale of the mantle and core cooling. Cubic CaSiO$_3$ perovskite (CaPv) is the…
Understanding heat transfers in fibrous materials, particularly conduction, is a major challenge due to their heterogeneous and multiscale nature, and the unknown contribution of fiber-to-fiber contacts. In most previous modeling studies,…
With the commissioning of powerful, new-generation telescopes such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the ground-based Extremely Large Telescopes, the first characterization of a high molecular weight atmosphere around a temperate…
A new formalism for extracting the modal contributions to thermal interface conductance with full inclusion of anharmonicity is presented. The results indicate that when two materials are joined a new set of vibrational modes are required…
The sorption curve is an essential feature for the modelling of heat and mass transfer in porous building materials. Several models have been proposed in the literature to represent the amount of moisture content in the material according…
We developed a theory of electric and thermoelectric conductivity of lightly doped SrTiO$_3$ in the non-degenerate region $k_B T \geq E_F$, assuming that the major source of electron scattering is their interaction with soft transverse…
Thermodynamic stability of N$_2$ clathrate hydrates in the sI and sII structures is investigated using density functional theory with several exchange-correlation functionals, explicitly accounting for composition (cage occupancies) and…
In the present work, we report the experimental thermopower ($\alpha$) data for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ compound in the high temperature range 300-600 K. The value of $\alpha$ is found to be $\sim$184 and $\sim$126 $\mu$V/K at $\sim$300 and…
Thermal properties of molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) have recently attracted attention related to fundamentals of heat propagation in strongly anisotropic materials, and in the context of potential applications to optoelectronics and…
Recent analyses of the intergalactic UV background by means of the HeII Lyman alpha forest assume that HeII and HI absorption features have the same line widths. We omit this assumption to investigate possible effects of thermal line…
First-principles calculations based on density functional theory and the pseudopotential method have been used to investigate the energetics of H$_2$O adsorption on the (110) surface of TiO$_2$ and SnO$_2$. Full relaxation of all atomic…
The thermal conductivities ($\kappa$) of bulk and thin-film $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ are calculated from first principles using both the local density approximation (LDA), and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) to exchange and…
We present an ab-initio study of the temperature dependent elastic constants of BAs, a semiconductor that exhibits ultra-high thermal conductivity and is under investigation for thermal management in electronics. We test the consistency of…
This paper reports thermopower and conductivity measurements through the metal-insulator transition for 2-dimensional electron gases in high mobility Si-MOSFETs. At low temperatures both thermopower and conductivity show critical behaviour…
Several thermodynamic properties of ice Ih, II, and III are studied by a quasi-harmonic approximation and compared to results of quantum path integral and classical simulations. This approximation allows to obtain thermodynamic information…
The magnetic properties of Cu97Co3 and Cu90Co10 granular alloys were measured over a wide temperature range (2 to 300K). The measurements show an unusual temperature dependence of the coercive field. A generalized model is proposed and…
BaTiO3 (BTO) is one of the most interesting classes of perovskite materials. The present study has been complied to explore some physical properties such as mechanical, vibrational, thermo-physical, and temperature dependent thermodynamic…
