Overview

Ivan R. Kennedy is affiliated with the University of Sydney in Australia and has contributed extensively to the fields of Physics and Astronomy. Their research primarily focuses on Advanced Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics, with a substantial number of publications addressing phase equilibria and thermodynamics, ocean acidification effects and responses, wind energy research and development, origins and evolution of life, and various chemistry research topics.

Their work spans several subfields including Statistical and Nonlinear Physics, Oceanography, Biomedical Engineering, Astronomy and Astrophysics, and Physical and Theoretical Chemistry. This multidisciplinary approach highlights a broad engagement with both theoretical and applied sciences.

Kennedy has published numerous papers in recognized scientific venues. They have contributed eight publications to Preprints.org, three to arXiv hosted by Cornell University, two to Entropy, two to Thermo, and two to the Proceedings of Entropy 2021: The Scientific Tool of the 21st Century.

Some of their recent papers include:

  • Drought-tolerant Pseudomonas sp. showed differential expression of stress-responsive genes and induced drought tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana (2021, Physiologia Plantarum)
  • Estimating Maximum Power from Wind Turbines with a Simple Newtonian Approach (2023, Archives of Advanced Engineering Science)
  • Action and Entropy in Heat Engines: An Action Revision of the Carnot Cycle (2021, Entropy)
  • Partitioning Entropy with Action Mechanics: Predicting Chemical Reaction Rates and Gaseous Equilibria of Reactions of Hydrogen from Molecular Properties (2021, Entropy)
  • Partitioning Entropy with Action Mechanics: Predicting Chemical Reaction Rates and Gaseous Equilibria of Reactions of Hydrogen from Molecular Properties (2021, Preprints.org)

Frequent collaborators in Kennedy's work include Migdat Hodžić, Angus N. Crossan, John W. Runcie, Raymond J. Ritchie, and Niranjan Acharige, reflecting ongoing partnerships across related research areas.
