Turbulence in nature refers to the complex, time-dependent, and spatially varying fluctuations that develop in fluids such as ...

Statistical mechanics is one of the pillars of modern physics. Ludwig Boltzmann (1844–1906) and Josiah Willard Gibbs ...

Or, to put it more precisely: That entropy must increase in every closed system. Ordered structures lose their order, regular ice crystals turn into water, porcelain vases are broken up into shards.

Entropy measures a system’s overall unpredictability or chaos. Entropy ensures that inputs to cryptographic puzzles, such as ...

An SMU-led research team has developed a more cost-effective, energy-efficient material called high-entropy oxide (HEO) ...

What is the concept of entropy? Embedded-system applications that exploit entropy. How to implement entropy. What sources of entropy are available? Computers are designed to be predictable.

Entropy is seen not as a property intrinsic to a system but as one that’s relative to an observer who interacts with that system. This modern view illuminates the deep link between information and ...

Maxwell’s equations are fundamental tools for electric and magnetic fields, while Maxwell’s relations focus on thermodynamic ...

Using his previously formulated Second Law of Infodynamics, Vopson claims that the decrease of entropy in information systems over time could prove that the universe has a built-in “data ...
