Entropy - MDPI The concept of entropy constitutes, together with energy, a cornerstone of contemporary physics and related areas It was originally introduced by Clausius in 1865 along abstract lines focusing on thermodynamical irreversibility of macroscopic physical processes In the next decade, Boltzmann made the genius connection—further developed by Gibbs—of the entropy with the microscopic world

The Entropy of Entropy: Are We Talking about the Same Thing? - MDPI In the last few decades, the number of published papers that include search terms such as thermodynamics, entropy, ecology, and ecosystems has grown rapidly Recently, background research carried out during the development of a paper on “thermodynamics in ecology” revealed huge variation in the understanding of the meaning and the use of some of the central terms in this field—in
Applications of Entropy in Data Analysis and Machine Learning: A . . . - MDPI Since its origin in the thermodynamics of the 19th century, the concept of entropy has also permeated other fields of physics and mathematics, such as Classical and Quantum Statistical Mechanics, Information Theory, Probability Theory, Ergodic Theory and the Theory of Dynamical Systems Specifically, we are referring to the classical entropies: the Boltzmann–Gibbs, von Neumann, Shannon
The Entropy Universe - MDPI About 160 years ago, the concept of entropy was introduced in thermodynamics by Rudolf Clausius Since then, it has been continually extended, interpreted, and applied by researchers in many scientific fields, such as general physics, information theory, chaos theory, data mining, and mathematical linguistics This paper presents The Entropy Universe, which aims to review the many variants of
Research Progress on Tribological Properties of High-Entropy Alloys - MDPI As a new type of alloy system composed of five or more principal components, high-entropy alloys demonstrate outstanding comprehensive performance in the field of friction and wear through the synergistic effects of the high-entropy effect, lattice distortion effect, hysteresis diffusion effect and cocktail effect This paper systematically reviews the research progress on the friction and
Towards Pragmatist Thermodynamics: An Essay on the Natural . . . - MDPI The evolving envelope of open systems within these assemblages manifests an increasing rate of entropy production This synthesis of thermodynamics and evolutionary theory builds on Lotka’s pioneering contributions and contemporary theories, particularly Vermeij’s work on the evolution of power
