Understanding aging is a key biological goal. Precision gerontology aims to predict how
long individuals will live under different treatment scenarios. Calorie and protein restriction …

Bridging the gap between concepts derived from Second Law of Thermodynamics and their
application to Engineering practice, the property exergy and the exergy balance can be a …

For decades, a vast majority of biogerontologists assumed that aging is not and cannot be
an adaptation. In recent years, however, several authors opposed this predominant view …

In this article, we discuss the entropy generation on the asymmetric peristaltic propulsion of
non-Newtonian fluid with convective boundary conditions. The Williamson fluid model is …

Abstract Background and Objective: Entropy generation is associated with the irreversibility
of any thermodynamic system. It provides an indication of lost energy and hence the …

Thermodynamics, the science of energy interactions, governs the direction of processes
found in nature. While the subject finds wide applications in science and technology, its …

Exergy analysis is applied to assess the energy conversion processes that take place in the
human body, aiming at developing indicators of health and performance based on the …

This paper investigates the features of applied magnetic field and entropy generation on
Jeffrey nanofluid in between an annular part of two micro non-concentric pipes with the inner …

The exergy analysis of the human body is a tool that can provide indicators of health and life
quality. To perform the exergy balance it is necessary to calculate the metabolism on an …

The first and second laws of thermodynamic were applied to statistical databases on
nutrition and human growth in order to estimate the entropy generation over the human …
