In this chapter we address the puzzle of thermoTRP channel temperature and voltage sensitivity from a biophysical point of view. We deal with the problem through a classic thermodynamic approach, followed by a comparison ...

Nanocomposites doped with rare-earth ions have been largely investigated from their optical point of view for different applications that range from LEDs, sensors, amplifiers, and optical switches to newnanophotonic devices. ...

A multiscale framework for thermo-mechanical analysis with phase transformations is proposed in this work. The formulation covers those cases including coupled constitutive equations for simulating thermo-mechanical processes ...

In mammals a class of ion channels able to sense a wide range of temperatures (0-60 °C) has evolved. These molecular thermodynamic machines called thermo Transient Receptor Potential (thermoTRP) are spread through the ...

Thermo-oxidative bitumen ageing has been commonly recognised as the main cause of asphalt cracking. The effect of thermo-oxidative ageing level on bitumen has been studied in this work by means of a simple and effective ...
