... on the partition function and entropy, not on the energy values of the quasiparticles, there is no theoretical limit to the lowest temperatures it can possibly describe. This entropic approach when extended well below the lambda-line, going near absolute zero, predicts the existence of an interatomic potential...

...Abstract Abstract We present a complete thermodynamic analogy of statistical energy analysis (SEA) using entropy and energy for both linear and nonlinear coupled systems. We will use Khinchin’s Entropy as our statistical entropy definition from statistical mechanics. This framework allows...

... of the elastic-rod array. There are local and global patterns. Local patterns comprise transient rest, linear motion, and elliptical motion. In 90-rod experiments, a cluster-pattern entropy measure based on these three patterns is introduced as a quantitative measure of local complexity. No significant dynamics...

... 13 05 2008 In this paper hot wire measurements of the boundary layer velocity profiles at discrete locations along the suction surface of a turbine blade profile are presented. The measured aerodynamic data is transformed into thermodynamic data by way of the entropy function...

... & sound propagation ± Lines are linear functions of the micro state differentials. It is shown that dS 0 is the total differential of the micro state energy equation along the particle path . It is proportional to the “ Clausius ”-entropy differential ds through the gas constant R...

... equations together with the reaction kinetics, state equations, and temperature and concentration dependent transport properties, are solved numerically to determine the temperature and concentrations fields. These results are then used to calculate the rates of local entropy generation to determine...
