Complexity, 2011 AbstractThis article deals with generalized entropies for graphs. These entropies result from applying information measures to a graph using various schemes for defining probability distributions over the elements (e.g., vertices) of the graph. We introduce a new class of generalized measures, develop their properties, compute the measures for selected

The Concavity of Generalized Entropy Powers
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2022 In this note we introduce a new family of entropy powers which are related to generalized entropies, called Sharma-Mittal entropies, and we prove their concavity along diffusion processes generated by $L^2$-Wasserstein gradient flows of corresponding entropy functionals.

Entropy production and lost work for irreversible processes [PDF]
, 2006 In this paper we analyse in depth the Lost Work in an irreversible process (i.e. IRREV REV Lost ) W =W -W . This quantity is also called ‘degraded energy’ or ‘Energy unavailable to do work’. Usually in textbooks one can find the relation Lost U W o TDS .

Additive generalization of the Boltzmann entropy [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2003 There exists only one generalization of the classical Boltzmann-Gibbs-Shannon entropy functional to a one-parametric family of additive entropy functionals. We find analytical solution to the corresponding extension of the classical ensembles, and discuss in some detail the example of the deformation of the uncorrelated state.

Effectiveness of Entransy Dissipation Metric and Entropy Generation Units in The Design of Fin-Tube Heat Exchangers [PDF]
, 2012 Several techniques and metrics based on the Second Law of Thermodynamics have been used in the past for the analysis of heat exchangers. The terms used for these techniques include irreversibility analysis, entropy generation minimization, exergy ...
